▎ 摘　　要

Interatomic interaction potentials are compared using a molecular dynamics modeling method to choose the simplest, but most effective, model to describe the interaction of copper nanoparticles and graphene flakes. Three potentials are considered: (1) the bond-order potential; (2) a hybrid embedded-atom-method and Morse potential; and (3) the Morse potential. The interaction is investigated for crumpled graphene filled with copper nanoparticles to determine the possibility of obtaining a composite and the mechanical properties of this material. It is observed that not all potentials can be applied to describe the graphene-copper interaction in such a system. The bond-order potential potential takes into account various characteristics of the bond (for example, the angle of rotation and bond lengths); its application increases the simulation time and results in a strong interconnection between a metal nanoparticle and a graphene flake. The hybrid embedded-atom-method/Morse potential and the Morse potential show different results and lower bonding between graphene and copper. All the potentials enable a composite structure to be obtained; however, the resulting mechanical properties, such as strength, are different.
