Episode Synopsis "Atomic Picture of Plastic Deformation in Metals: Overview Lecture"
The lecture describes the objectives of the learning module and provides the necessary background for the activities. We briefly discuss the following topics:mechanical response of macroscopic polycrystalline metals during tensile testsmolecular dynamics simulations of materialsmechanical response of nanoscale, defect-free samples This lecture is part of the learning module Atomic Picture of Plastic Deformation in Metals.
