Extending the Time Scale in Atomistic Simulation of Materials
■ Abstract Obtaining a good atomistic description of diffusion dynamics in materials has been a daunting task owing to the time-scale limitations of the molecular dynamics method. We discuss promising new methods, derived from transition state theory, for accelerating molecular dynamics simulations of these infrequent-event processes. These methods, hyperdynamics, parallel replica dynamics, tem...
متن کاملFrom atomistic simulation towards multiscale modelling of materials
This paper discusses some current trends in computational materials science, especially the striving to forge links between modelling activities at various length and timescales. At the atomistic scale, methods based on quantum mechanical, especially density-functional, theories for electronic properties link to atomic/molecular dynamics and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. Coarse graining lead...
متن کاملAtomistic Multiscale Simulation of Nanostructured Materials for Photonic Applications
Nanotechnology is a new, just incipient field of science and engineering, in which substances are controlled at an atomic or molecular level. Because new substances with a prescribed atomic and molecular structure are created in nanotechnologies by means of controlled manipulation with atoms and molecules, the use of multiscale atomistic simulation methods is of fundamental necessity. Hierarchi...
متن کاملAtomistic mechanisms of fatigue in nanocrystalline metals.
We investigate the mechanisms of fatigue behavior in nanocrystalline metals at the atomic scale using empirical force laws and molecular level simulations. A combination of molecular statics and molecular dynamics was used to deal with the time scale limitations of molecular dynamics. We show that the main atomistic mechanism of fatigue crack propagation in these materials is the formation of n...
متن کاملInterfaces in Carbon Materials: Experiment and Atomistic Simulation
In this thesis work, we have explored the possibility and the limitations of using atomistic simulation in studying structure and properties of carbon/ carbon interfaces and its integration with appropriate experimental techniques. In doing so, we have tested several interatomic potential functions for carbon and concluded that the potential functions tested are not ideally suited for all appli...
