Abstract:Molecular‐dynamics (MD) simulation is a well‐developed numerical technique that involves the use of a suitable algorithm to solve the classical equations of motion for atoms interacting with a known interatomic potential. This method has been used for several decades now to illustrate and understand the temperature and pressure dependencies of dynamical phenomena in liquids, solids, and liquid‐solid interfaces.
MD simulation techniques are also well suited for studying surface phenomena, as they prov… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
