(a) Setup employed in the fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We shot a nickel particle against graphene sheets, at different velocity v and angle θ values. (b) MD snapshot from a case with θ = 0° and v = 900 m/s. The ballistic impact generates an elastic deformation wave that propagates with velocity vc over an area much larger than the particle dimensions.
