Atomic Simulation of Nanoindentation on the Regular Wrinkled Graphene Sheet

Surface landscapes have vague impact on the mechanical properties of graphene. In this paper, single-layered graphene sheets (SLGS) with regular wrinkles were first constructed by applying shear deformation using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and then indented to extract their mechanical properties. The influence of the boundary condition of SLGS were considered. The wrinkle features and wrinkle formation processes of SLGS were found to be...
