Abstract:Single/multilayer graphene holds great promise in withstanding impact/penetration as ideal protective material. In this work, dynamic penetration behaviors of graphene has been explored using molecular dynamics simulations. The crashworthiness performance of graphene is contingent upon the number of layers and impact velocity. The variables including residual velocity and kinetic energy loss under different layers or different impact velocities have been monitored during the hypervelocity impact. Results show … Show more
“…In this CGMD simulation, the impact simulation system consists of a spherical diamond projectile and a graphene/NR nanocomposite with a nacre-like architecture, of which the former is widely used to study the impact resistance of graphene layers and polymer matrices at the microscopic scale, [39][40][41][42] as shown in Fig. 3(a).…”
