Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
A simple method for computing accurate density-dependent dispersion coefficients is presented. The dispersion coefficients are modeled by a generalized gradient-type approximation to Becke and Johnson's exchange hole dipole moment formalism. Our most cost- ...
Quantum chemical methods are important tools for the predictions of electronic structure and energetics of molecules providing the interpretation of spectroscopic experiments and reaction mechanisms. In this thesis, density functional theory (DFT) and wave ...
As the simplest variant of the valence bond (VB) theory, the block-localized wave function (BLW) method defines the intermediate electron-localized state self-consistently at the DFT level and can be used to explore the nature of intermolecular interaction ...
An atomistic model of substoichiometric germanium oxide is generated through ab initio molecular dynamics. The resulting structure shows a predominance of threefold coordinated Ge and O atoms. We also generate substoichiometric models through bond-switchin ...
The Kohn-Sham formulation of density functional theory (DFT) has posed itself as one of the most popular and versatile methods for condensed phase studies owing to its reasonable accuracy and affordable computational cost. DFT, in principle, yields exact g ...
The behavior of metals at high pressure is of great importance to the fields of shock physics, geophysics, astrophysics, and nuclear materials. We study here bulk crystalline aluminum from first principles at pressures up to 2500 GPa - soon within reach of ...
We have studied the influence of implicit solvent models, inclusion of explicit water molecules, inclusion of vibrational effects, and density functionals on the quality of the predicted pK a of small amino acid side chain models. We found that the inclusi ...
The vibrational properties of vitreous GeSe2 are studied within the Becke-Lee-Yang-Parr (BLYP) generalized gradient approximation to density functional theory. For this purpose, we consider two models. The first one is derived from a chemically ordered net ...
A direct relationship exists between the properties of substituted semibullvalenes and their Cope rearrangement activation barrier. This unique correlation not only enables the determination of kinetic data from ground state information, but also provides ...
We propose to express corrections to the standard approximations of the exchange-correlation functionals in the form of multiatom-centered functionals that can be related to the atoms-in-molecules theory of Bader and a multicenter density expansion. Unlike ...
