ABSTRACTClassical molecular dynamics simulations were used to compare the fracture behavior of pristine and disordered specimens of a simplified nuclear glass. The disordered specimen is prepared in order to mimic the effects of accumulating displacement cascades. It is characterized by a decreasing Boron coordination and an increasing Na concentration in a modifying role. We observe an enhancement of the plasticity of the disordered glass and a decrease of the elastic limit, resulting in greater fracture toughness. The simulation findings are consistent with experimental results.

In this paper, we investigate the mechanical properties of ceria and gadolinia doped ceria by molecular dynamics simulations. The doped concentrations and temperature dependence of yield stress and elastic modulus have been evaluated via uniaxial compression. Simulation results reveal that such properties decrease dramatically with higher temperature and doped content. In addition, the attenuated effect of doped content is more significant than that of temperature.
