A multiscale molecular dynamics approach to contact mechanics.
The friction and adhesion between elastic bodies are strongly influenced by the roughness of the surfaces in contact. Here we develop a multiscale molecular dynamics approach to contact mechanics, which can be used also when the surfaces have roughness on many different length-scales, e.g., for self affine fractal surfaces. As an illustration we consider the contact between randomly rough surfa...
متن کاملA coupled meshfree technique/molecular dynamics method for multiscale stress and deformation analysis in computational mechanics
A concurrent multiscale method has been developed based on the combination of the advanced meshfree method and molecular dynamics (MD). An advanced transition algorithm using regular transition particles was employed to ensure the compatibility of both displacements and their gradients. An effective local quasi-continuum approach is also applied to obtain the equivalent continuum strain energy ...
متن کاملInternal Coordinate Molecular Dynamics: A Foundation for Multiscale Dynamics
Internal coordinates such as bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles (BAT) are natural coordinates for describing a bonded molecular system. However, the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation methods that are widely used for proteins, DNA, and polymers are based on Cartesian coordinates owing to the mathematical simplicity of the equations of motion. However, constraints are often needed wit...
متن کاملUsing A Multiscale Approach to Characterize Workload Dynamics
Workload characterization has been essential ingredients for the design of computer systems. As computer architecture becomes adaptive and reconfigurable, its efficiency increasingly depends on the dynamic behavior of workloads. Program execution manifests wildly varied changes at run time. As software becomes large and sophisticated, such variation can span a wide range of time scales. As curr...
متن کاملA discrete mechanics approach to dislocation dynamics in BCC crystals
A discrete mechanics approach to modeling the dynamics of dislocations in BCC single crystals is presented. Ideas are borrowed from discrete differential calculus and algebraic topology and suitably adapted to crystal lattices. In particular, the extension of a crystal lattice to a CW complex allows for convenient manipulation of forms and fields defined over the crystal. Dislocations are treat...
