Abstract

The Euler buckling theory states that the buckling critical strain is an inverse quadratic function of the length for a thin plate in the static compression process. However, the suitability of this theory in the dynamical process is unclear, so we perform molecular dynamics simulations to examine the applicability of the Euler buckling theory for the fast compression of the single-layer MoS2. We find that the Euler buckling theory is not applicable in such dynamical process, as the buckling critical strain becomes a length-independent constant in the buckled system with many ripples. However, the Euler buckling theory can be resumed in the dynamical process after restricting the theory to an individual ripple in the buckled structure.
