The influence of the excitation pulse shape on the stress wave propagation in a bcc iron crystal

This article presents a large-scale molecular dynamic simulations of wave propagation in a cracked bcc (body centered cubic) iron crystal based on an N-body potential model which gives a good description of an anisotropic elasticity. The crystal is loaded by a stress pulse on its front face and the...
