Nanoindentation Simulation of Hardening Caused by Cr Precipitates in FeCr Alloy by WANG Shumin, HE Xinfu, CAO Jinli

“…Nanoindentation simulation can combine the evolution of micro-defects and the changes of macro-mechanical properties to explore the physical mechanisms of the changes of mechanical properties of materials, and is an important tool to explore the current topic selection. In order to analyze the different effects of solid solution Cr element and Cr precipitation on the matrix, molecular dynamics was used to simulate the nanoindentation of pure Fe, Fe-12Cr alloy and Fe with Cr clusters in this paper. …”
