Molecular-Dynamics Simulations of the Emergence of Surface Roughness in a Polymer under Compression
Roughness of surfaces is both surprisingly ubiquitous on all length scales and extremely relevant practically. The appearance of multi-scale roughness has been linked to avalanches and plastic deformation in metals. However, other, more-complex materials have mechanisms of plasticity that are signif...
