“…As such, it can measure the properties of thin films and nanoparticulate materials. Nano indentation simulation represents the hardness value from a material when given a static load until it deforms, as investigated by several researchers [3][4][5][6]. Hardness is one of the most important properties, and it is commonly used to give a general indication of the strength and resistance to plastic deformation.…”

In this research, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to model the effects of copper content on aluminum properties. Copper has a low solubility in aluminum. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to study the influence of copper content (Cu) on the mechanical properties of aluminum. Modeling and simulation of nano indentation and uniaxial tension tests were carried out to observe the mechanical properties under the conditions of copper content starting from 0.5 up to 10wt% at 300oK. The interactions between the atoms of aluminum and copper were modeled using Embedded Atom Method (EAM) potentials. The calculation showed that a higher amount of copper increased the tensile strength of aluminum, and in this research,10wt% copper gave the highest tensile strength. But when it comes to the nano indentation test to determine hardness value, it showed that 1wt% copper gave the highest hardness, it assumes that this is related to localization of nano indentation test position optimum formation of intermetallic aluminum-copper, Al2Cu on a certain area.

“…Based on experimental results, copper (Cu) is the most widely added to aluminum because aluminum and copper alloys will be able to form a precipitate, namely, Al2Cu. Al2Cu is a precipitate that can improve its mechanical properties by hindering the dislocation of the aluminum matrix [4][5][6][7][8].…”
