This paper presents molecular dynamics simulations of shear-coupled migration of tilt boundaries pinned by triple junctions in a simple model structure of columnar grains of different sizes. Simulations are for copper at 300 K. The phenomenon is of interest as a possible explanation of the Hall-Petch relationship breakdown in nano-grained polycrystals deformed at high or moderate strain rate and low-temperature.
