Stretched Exponential Relaxation of Glasses: Origin of the Mixed Alkali Effect
Yingtian Yu, John C. Mauro, Mathieu Bauchy
Although it is indeed commonly believed that, as frozen supercooled liquids, glasses should continue to flow over the years (e.g., in the case of the stained-glass windows of medie…
Topological Control on Atomic Networks' Relaxation Under Stress
Mathieu Bauchy, Mengyi Wang, Yingtian Yu +4
Upon loading, atomic networks can feature delayed viscoplastic relaxation. However, the effect of composition and structure on such a relaxation remains poorly understood. Herein,…
Direct Experimental Evidence for Differing Reactivity Alterations of Minerals following Irradiation: The Case of Calcite and Quartz
Isabella Pignatelli, Aditya Kumar, Kevin G. Field +5
Concrete, a mixture formed by mixing cement, water, and fine and coarse mineral aggregates is used in the construction of nuclear power plants (NPPs), e.g., to construct the reacto…
Fracture Toughness of Silicate Glasses: Insights from Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Yingtian Yu, Bu Wang, Young Jea Lee +1
Understanding, predicting and eventually improving the resistance to fracture of silicate materials is of primary importance to design new glasses that would be tougher, while reta…
Nano-Ductility in Silicate Glasses is Driven by Topological Heterogeneity
Bu Wang, Yingtian Yu, Mengyi Wang +2
The existence of nanoscale ductility during the fracture of silicate glasses remains controversial. Here, based on molecular dynamics simulations coupled with topological constrain…
Nature of Radiation-Induced Defects in Quartz
Bu Wang, Yingtian Yu, Isabella Pignatelli +2
Although quartz (-form) is a mineral used in numerous applications wherein radiation exposure is an issue, the nature of the atomistic defects formed during radiation-induce…
Stretched Exponential Relaxation of Glasses at Low Temperature
Yingtian Yu, Mengyi Wang, Dawei Zhang +3
The question of whether glass continues to relax at low temperature is of fundamental and practical interest. Here, we report a novel atomistic simulation method allowing us to dir…
