Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations of sintering

چکیده

We simulate the sintering of particle aggregates due to surface diffusion. As a method we use Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations in which elasticity can explicitly be taken into account. Therefore it is possible to investigate the shape relaxation of aggregates also under the influence of an external pressure. Without elasticity we investigate the relaxation time and surface evolution of sintering aggregates and compare the simulations with the classical Koch-Friedlander theory. Deviations from the theoretical predictions will be discussed.

Energy study at different solvents for potassium Channel Protein by Monte Carlo, Molecular and Langevin Dynamics Simulations

Potassium Channels allow potassium flux and are essential for the generation of electric current acrossexcitable membranes. Potassium Channels are also the targets of various intracellular controlmechanisms; such that the suboptimal regulation of channel function might be related to pathologicalconditions. Realistic studies of ion current in biologic channels present a major challenge for compu...

Three Dimensional Monte Carlo Simulation of Isotropic Coarsening of Particles in Liquid Phase

Coarsening of particles during liquid phase sintering is known to be an example of Ostwald ripening. This coarsening process, in a fully wetting system, is simulated in three dimensions with a kinetic Monte Carlo model. The results from the simulation for microstructures, kinetics and particle size distributions are compared to available experimental findings. It is found that the average parti...
