Abstract:A parametric study is carried out to shed iight on the elastoplastic behavior of a nanowire under lithiation. The Li-ion diffusivity is assumed to be significantly higher at near-saturation than at diiute concentration. It leads to the prediction of an Li-ion diffusion jam and consequently a topologicaliy steep step moving along the wire. The analysis shows that the different plastic flow rates due to the different constraint conditions along the longitudinal and radial directions result in apparent anisotropi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
