A numerical strategy for coarse-graining two-dimensional atomistic models at finite temperature: the membrane case
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a numerical strategy to compute ensemble averages of coarse-grained two-dimensional membrane-like models. The approach consists in generalizing to these two-dimensional models a one-dimensional strategy exposed in [Blanc, Le Bris, Legoll, Patz, JNLS 2010, [6]], which is based on applying the ergodic theorem to Markov chains. This may be considered as a first step towards computing the constitutive law associated to such models, in the thermodynamic limit.

Coarse Graining of Atomistic Description at Finite Temperature Using Formal Asymptotics
In this paper, we propose a computational method for coarse graining the atomistic description at finite temperature using formal asymptotics. The method is based on the ansatz that there exists a separation of scales between the time scale of the atomic fluctuations and that of the thermodynamic processes, such as thermal expansion. We use the WKBmethod to propose an averaging scheme for treat...
متن کاملCoarse-Grained Atomistics Via Meshless and Mesh-Based Quasicontinuum Techniques
Spatial coarse-graining techniques are powerful methods to overcome the computational limits of molecular dynamics. In order to extend atomistic simulations of crystalline materials to the micronscale and beyond, the quasicontinuum (QC) approximation [1-3] reduces large crystalline atomistic ensembles to a significantly smaller number of representative atoms with suitable interpolation schemes ...
متن کاملCross-Graining: Efficient Multi-Scale Simulation via Markov State Models
Accurate and efficient methods to simulate biomolecular systems at multiple levels of detail simultaneously are an ongoing challenge for the simulation community. Here we present a new method for multi-scale simulation where a complex system can be partitioned into two loosely-coupled sub-systems, one coarse-grained and one atomistic. If the coupling between the coarse-grained and atomistic sys...
متن کاملMultiscale coarse-graining of ionic liquids.
A recently developed multiscale coarse-graining (MS-CG) approach for obtaining coarse-grained force fields from fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulation is applied to the challenging case of the EMIM+NO3- ionic liquid. The force-matching in the MS-CG methodology is accomplished with an explicit separation of bonded and nonbonded forces. While the nonbonded forces are adopted from this forc...
