Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulations of sliding between crystalline materials in 2-D permit atomic-scale analysis of the flow and mixing that generate disordered and nanocrystalline tribomaterial. In the case of hard-on-soft sliding, transfer and recrystallization were observed. Recovery processes were observed when applied forces were removed at the end of sliding.
