Molecular dynamics simulation of under-water glass corrosion

It has long been known that the residual tensile strength of glass fibers decreases after stress corrosion and zero-stress aging. In this project, zero-stress aging behaviour of glass (silicon oxide, SiO2) under water is studied at the molecular level, using Semi-empirical molecular method.
