Thermodynamic properties of liquid water as well as hexagonal (Ih) and cubic (Ic) ice are predicted based on density functional theory at the hybrid-functional level, rigorously taking into account quantum nuclear motion, anharmonic fluctuations, and proto ...

Predicting homogeneous nucleation rate from atomistic simulations

Bingqing Cheng

Predictive modelling and quantitative understanding of nucleation is essential for predicting phase transformation processes in nature and precisely controlling material synthesis and processing. Atomistic modeling is a powerful tool for capturing the dyna ...

Applications of Artificial Intelligence to Computational Chemistry

Nicholas John Browning

The calculation of the electronic structure of chemical systems, necessitates computationally expensive approximations to the time-independent electronic Schrödinger equation in order to yield static properties in good agreement with experimental results. ...

Thermodynamic properties of the Shastry-Sutherland model from quantum Monte Carlo simulations

Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand

We investigate the minus-sign problem that afflicts quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations of frustrated quantum spin systems, focusing on spin S = 1/2, two spatial dimensions, and the extended Shastry-Sutherland model. We show that formulating the Hamilton ...

Molecular phenomena in organic aerosol: water interaction

Gözde Bitlislioglu

There is still lack of knowledge about the aerosols physics and chemistry and consequently their impact on climate and health. The complexity of involved chemical interactions makes the characterization of these particles with experimental studies challeng ...

Unusual behavior in quantum materials commonly arises from their effective low-dimensional physics, reflecting the underlying anisotropy in the spin and charge degrees of freedom. Here we introduce the magnetotropic coefficient k = partial derivative F-2/p ...

A comparison of Redlich-Kister polynomial and cubic spline representations of the chemical potential in phase field computations

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

Free energies play a central role in many descriptions of equilibrium and non-equilibrium properties of solids. Continuum partial differential equations (PDEs) of atomic transport, phase transformations and mechanics often rely on first and second derivati ...

Molecular Structure Inhibiting Synergism in Charged Surfactant Mixtures: An Atomistic Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study

Satoshi Takahama, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas

Synergistic and nonsynergistic surfactant-water mixtures of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), lauryl betaine (C12B), and cocoamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) systems are studied using molecular simulation to understand the role of interactions among headgroups, tail ...

Symmetry-adapted order parameters and free energies for solids undergoing order-disorder phase transitions

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

Accurate thermodynamic descriptions are a key ingredient to kinetic theories that describe the mesoscale evolution of a solid undergoing ordering or decomposition reactions. We introduce a general approach to identify order parameters for order-disorder re ...

APS2017

We report on a combined computational and experimental examination of coherent precipitation in a Mg-Nd alloy, a prototypical Mg-rare earth alloy. Three-dimensional phase field simulations are conducted to predict the composition and morphology of precipit ...
