dc.descriptionIn recent years it has become possible to study the properties of nanocrystalline metals through atomic-scale simulations of systems with realistic grain sizes. A brief overview of the main results is given, such as the observation of a reverse Hall-Petch effect - a softening of the metal when the grain size is reduced. The limitations of computer simulations are discussed, with a particular focus on the factors that may influence the reliability of this kind of simulations.
