Abstract
The molecular dynamics investigation of plastic deformation initiation has shown that at the first stage local structural distortions, i.e. protodefects that give rise to conventional lattice defects, are generated. We study in detail the dynamics of atomic displacements that govern protodefect nucleation. The calculations illustrate that protodefect formation is induced by a local expansion of atomic volume. The stage-by-stage generation of protodefects in the conditions of relaxation unambiguously correlates with potential energy variation in the crystallite.
