Abstract
We present new results of molecular dynamic (MD) simulations in 3D bcc iron crystals with embedded central through crack (001)[110] of Griffith type loaded in mode I. Two different sample geometries of the same crystallographic orientation were tested with negative and positive values of the T-stress, which change the ductile-brittle behavior along the crack front in 3D. This phenomenon is explained in the framework of stress analysis, both on the continuum and atomistic level.
