Molecular Dynamics of Heat Transfer and Quantum Mechanics

Molecular Dynamics (MD) is used in computational heat transfer to determine the thermal response of nanostructures. Finding basis in classical statistical mechanics, MD relates the thermal energy of the atom to its momentum by the equipartition theorem. Momenta of atoms in an ensemble are determined by solving Newton’s equations with inter-atomic forces derived from Lennard-Jones potentials. St...

The Molecular Mechanics Model of Carbon Allotropes

Carbon can form numerous allotropes because of its valency. Graphene, carbon nanotubes,capped carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and nanocones are well-known polymorphs of carbon.Remarkable mechanical properties of these carbon atoms have made them the subject of intenseresearch. Several studies have been conducted on carbon nanotubes or graphene. In the presentstudy, the molecular mechanics method ...

Continuum Mechanics in Physics Education

physics education is the nearly complete absence of continuum mechanics in the typical undergraduate or graduate curriculum. Continuum mechanics refers to field descriptions of mechanical phenomena, which are usually modeled by partial differential equations. The Navier–Stokes equations for the velocity and pressure fields of Newtonian fluids provide an important example, but continuum modeling...

Neoclassical Physics - Corpuscular Quantum Mechanics

In the article the motion of a body on a circumference is updated and the hypothesis of originating of a gravidynamic field is stated at motion of gravitational charges. 1. ABOUT UNIVERSAL ENERGY of REPULSING Let's untwist a small weight on cord. Thus the small weight has potential energy of attraction to center of rotation, but let's doubt that the small weight, moving on a circumference, has ...
