The molecular dynamics simulation is used to analyze the features of the deformation behavior and the process of fracture of graphene with dislocation dipoles with different arm. Moreover, the wrinkling of graphene during deformation is taken into account, which greatly reduces the strength of graphene. It has been established that an increase in temperature slightly affects the mechanical properties of graphene with dislocation dipoles, in contrast to defect-free graphene and graphene with a Stone–Wales defect. It is shown that a change in the distance between dislocations in a dipole does not significantly affect the elastic modulus and graphene strength. However, the presence of dislocation dipoles can affect graphene wrinkling during stretching.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
