Spall Fracture of Solid and Molten Copper: Molecular Dynamics, Mechanical Model and Strain Rate Dependence

In this study, we formulate a mechanical model of spall fracture of copper, which describes both solid and molten states. The model is verified, and its parameters are found based on the data of molecular dynamics simulations of this process under ultrahigh strain rate of tension, leading to the for...
