Cyclic Wear Reliability of 2D Monolayers

Understanding wear, a critical factor impacting the reliability of mechanical systems, is vital for nano-, meso-, and macroscale applications. Due to the complex nature of nanoscale wear, the behavior of nanomaterials such as two-dimensional materials under cyclic wear and their surface damage mechanism is yet unexplored. In this study, we used atomic force microscopy coupled with molecular dynamic simulations to statistically examine the cyclic wear behavior of monolayer graphene, MoS
