Molecular‑level investigation on the spallation of polyurea

Our paper "Molecular‑level investigation on the spallation of polyurea" is freely available from this link: https://rdcu.be/cqkbG

We used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the nanoscale mechanism associated with the spallation of polyurea, which allowed us to test some assumptions commonly made in the interpretation of similar experiments on the macroscale. 

The MD model used for the study is available here: https://zenodo.org/record/5099542#.YO5HU-hKhPY.

Based on this work, tomorrow I will give a talk at the 16th U.S. National Congress on Computational Mechanics: http://16.usnccm.org/MS_506
