Properties of liquid nickel: A critical comparison of EAM and MEAM calculations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we compare a variety of properties of liquid nickel calculated with two different embedded atom model functions @J. Cai and Y. Y. Ye, Phys. Rev. B 54, 8398 ~1996!; M. I. Baskes, J. I. Angelo, and N. R. Moody, in Hydrogen Effects on Material Behavior, edited by N. R. Moody and A. W. Thomson ~The Minerals, Metals, and Materials Society, Warrendale, PA, 1995!# and four variations of the modified embedded atom ~MEAM! model @M. I. Baskes, Mater. Chem. Phys. 50, 152 ~1997!#. We report calculated values of the melting point and structure factors for each of the representative potentials. We calculate via equilibrium molecular dynamics the shear viscosity and self-diffusion coefficient. This study shows that the short-ranged MEAM potential can give a representative picture of liquid nickel.

A new Embedded Atom Method potential for atomic-scale modeling of metal-silicon systems
A new formulation of EAM potential is developed for the description of interatomic interactions in metal-silicon systems. The potential is based on reformulation of the Embedded Atom Method (EAM) potential for metals and Stillinger – Weber (SW) potential for silicon in a compatible functional form. The potential is parameterized for Au-Si system and tested by comparing the predicted energies an...

The patterned compositional evolution in thin films of a binary alloy controlled by modulated stress fields is studied by employing Monte Carlo simulations. General features of stress-patterned phase segregation are probed using a binary Lennard-Jones potential in which the lattice misfit between the two components of the alloy is varied systematically. In general, patterning of the microstruct...
