Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Al/NiO Thermite Reaction Using Reactive Force Field (ReaxFF)
In this work, the thermal reaction of aluminum (Al) and nickel oxide (NiO) was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Some effective features of reaction such as reaction temperature, the reaction mechanism, and diffusion rate of oxygen into aluminum structure were studied. ReaxFF force field was performed to study the Al/NiO thermite reaction behavior at five different temperatures (5...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of the interactions between platinum clusters and carbon platelets.
Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed with two reactive force fields to investigate the structure of a Pt100 cluster adsorbed on the three distinct sides of a carbon platelet. A revised Reax force field for the carbon-platinum system is presented. In the simulations, carbon platelet edges both with and without hydrogen termination have been studied. It is found that the initial mis...
متن کاملParametric Study of ReaxFF Simulation Parameters for Molecular Dynamics Modeling of Reactive Carbon Gases.
The development of innovative carbon-based materials can be greatly facilitated by molecular modeling techniques. Although the Reax Force Field (ReaxFF) can be used to simulate the chemical behavior of carbon-based systems, the simulation settings required for accurate predictions have not been fully explored. Using the ReaxFF, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to simulate the chemic...
متن کاملChemical Reaction of Metal-carbon Binary Cluster Anions by Ft-icr Mass Spectrometer
Metal-carbon binary clusters generated by the laser vaporization of metal-doped carbon materials used for macroscopic production of endohedral metallofullerene or SWNTs were studied. Positive and negative clusters generated by the laser-vaporization supersonicexpansion cluster beam source were directly injected to the FT-ICR mass spectrometer. Depending on the metal species, the generated clust...
متن کاملCompression of carbon nanotubes filled with C60, CH4, or Ne: predictions from molecular dynamics simulations.
The effect of filling nanotubes with C60, CH4, or Ne on the mechanical properties of the nanotubes is examined. The approach is classical molecular dynamics using the reactive empirical bond order (REBO) and the adaptive intermolecular REBO potentials. The simulations predict that the buckling force of filled nanotubes can be larger than that of empty nanotubes, and the magnitude of the increas...
