Abstract
The random walk procedure has been applied on some typical relaxed CSL twist grain boundaries. The relaxation has been achieved by means of the Molecular Dynamics method, applied on the CSL computational cells. Some of the random walk parameters are discussed and the information dimension is examined as a function of the rotation angle θ. The remarkable anisotropy observed in the parameters between the grain boundary and the bulk is common to many dynamical properties of the grain boundaries.
