    Concurrent Atomistic/Continuum Simulation of Thermo-Mechanical Coupling Phenomena

    Xianqiao Wang1, James D. Lee1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.62, No.2, pp. 150-170, 2010, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2010.062.150

    Abstract The concurrent methods for coupling molecular dynamics with continuum thermodynamics offer a myriad of challenging problems, mostly related with energy transmission, wave reflection, and damage propagation at the interfaces between the continuum description and the discrete description. In this work, by virtue of the atomistic field theory (AFT), we present an analysis to reconcile the compatibility between atomic region and continuum region and to calculate the matching temperature field of a heat conduction problem in a concurrent atomistic/continuum system. First, formulation of AFT with finite temperature and its corresponding finite element implementation are briefly introduced. More >
