In a simulation, the potential energy of an atom, , is given by [3] = (()) + (), where is the distance between atoms and , is a pair-wise potential function, is the contribution to the electron charge density from atom of type at the location of atom , and is an embedding function that represents the energy required to place atom of type into the electron cloud.
Cell Transmission Model (CTM) is a popular numerical method proposed by Carlos Daganzo [1] to solve the kinematic wave equation. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Lebacque [ 4 ] later showed that CTM is the first order discrete Godunov approximation.
The simplest form of coarse-graining is the united atom (sometimes called extended atom) and was used in most early MD simulations of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. For example, instead of treating all four atoms of a CH 3 methyl group explicitly (or all three atoms of CH 2 methylene group), one represents the whole group with one pseudo ...
At the core of a radiative transfer model lies the radiative transfer equation that is numerically solved using a solver such as a discrete ordinate method or a Monte Carlo method. The radiative transfer equation is a monochromatic equation to calculate radiance in a single layer of the Earth's atmosphere.
In boundary atom schemes, the MM atom which is bonded across the boundary to a QM atom is replaced with a special boundary atom which appears in both the QM and the MM calculation. In the MM calculation, it simply behaves as an MM atom but in the QM system it mimics the electronic character of the MM atom bounded across the boundary to the QM atom.
High-resolution transmission electron microscopy is an imaging mode of specialized transmission electron microscopes that allows for direct imaging of the atomic structure of samples. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is a powerful tool to study properties of materials on the atomic scale, such as semiconductors, metals, nanoparticles and sp 2 -bonded carbon (e.g ...
The implementation of a multiphysics simulation follows a typical series of steps: [1] Identify the aspects of the system to be simulated, including physical processes, starting conditions, and the coupling or boundary conditions among these processes. Create a discrete mathematical model of the system. Numerically solve the model.
A successful large-scale simulation of the evolution of galaxies, with results consistent with what is actually seen by astronomers in the night sky, provides evidence that the theoretical underpinnings of the models employed, i.e., the supercomputer implementations ΛCDM, are sound bases for understanding galactic dynamics and the history of the universe, and opens avenues to further research.
