Penetration scaling in atomistic simulations of hypervelocity impact

We present atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of the impact of copper nano particles at 5 km s -1 on copper films ranging in thickness from from 0.5 to 4 times the projectile diameter. We access both penetration and cratering regimes with final cratering morphologies sh...
