Abstract

We present the results of large-scale NonEquilibrium Molecular Dynamics (NEMD) simulations for Cu/Ag interfaces sliding in the velocity regime 0≤v≤1Km/sec. System sizes of 2.8 × 106 atoms are considered using Embedded Atom Method (EAM) potentials. Single crystals with 010 interfaces sliding along the <100> direction are considered. We discuss the observed velocity weakening in the tangential force at high velocities, and its connection with the observed dislocation structure and nanostructure that are nucleated during dry sliding.
