Indenter size effect on the reversible incipient plasticity of Al(001) surface is studied by quasicontinuum simulations.Results show that the incipient plasticity under small indenter, the radius of which is less than...
The error caused by the ghost force is studied for a quasicontinuum method with planar interface in two dimension. For a special case, we derive an analytical expression of the error, which is exploited to prove that ...

Quasicontinuum simulations were performed to study the processes of incipient plastic deformation on three FCC metals (Ag,Ni and Pd) under the action of a rigid indenter.Four widths (9.3,18.6,27.9 and 37.2 ) of the in...
A large-scale atom simulation of nanoindentation into a thin nickel film using the quasicontinuum method was performed. The initial stages of the plasticity deformation of nickel were studied. Several useful results w...
