Boron Carbide[1,2] has been investigated via
non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations[3] to examine structural changes
that occur as a result of high temperatures that are released under shock
compression. Simulations are carried out at 10 K initial temperature in
different crystallographic directions. Shock compression has been modeled
by momentum mirror technique. Dimensions of the structure used in the
simulation are 30×30×1200 A3 and 30×46×2242 A3.
Structural changes caused by high pressure and temperature were observed. It
has been observed that the temperature rises above the melting point in the
regions where the pressure exceeds the elasticity limit.
