The Role of Hydrogen on the Behavior of Intergranular Cracks in Bicrystalline α-Fe Nanowires

Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) has been extensively studied in bulk materials. However, little is known about the role of H on the plastic deformation and fracture mechanisms of nanoscale materials such as nanowires. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations are employed to study the influence of H...
