摘要: Fragmentation mechanisms of peptide assemblies under shock deformation are studied using molecular dynamics simulations and found to depend strongly on the relative magnitude front radius fibril length ratio impact energy cohesive energy. The competition between size scaling curvature leads a mechanism change at critical velocity, developing stark contrast in fragmentation low high strain rates. We show that can be classified basis time scales relaxation provide new insight into experimental observations.
