Sweep-tracing algorithm: in silico slip crystallography and tension-compression asymmetry in BCC metals

Abstract Direct Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations are being increasingly employed to model dislocation-mediated crystal plasticity with atomic resolution. Thanks to the dislocation extraction algorithm (DXA), dislocation lines can be now accurately detected and positioned in space and their Burger...
