Computation of grain boundary stiffness and mobility from boundary fluctuations
Abstract
Grain boundary stiffness and mobility determine the kinetics of curvature driven grain growth. Here the stiffness and mobility are determined using a computational approach based on the analysis of fluctuations in the grain boundary position during molecular dynamics simulations. This work represents the first determination of grain boundary stiffness. The results indicate that the boundary stiffness for a given boundary plane has a strong …
