We have performed a new analysis on the dynamics and structure to investigate the aluminum-silicate melt under pressure. It is shown that the low-pressure configuration of the melt exhibits dynamic heterogeneity. The mobile and immobile atoms tend to reside in regions which have extremely high or low density. We reveal two moving types: the simply hopping or collective moving via supermolecule. The latter type is responsible for the positive pressure dependence on diffusivity. The structure is analyzed via SC-particle and SC-cluster. Our simulation reveals the structural heterogeneity in local environment and chemical composition. The densification of the melt is accompanied with the decreasing of the radius of core of SC-particle and the number of large SC-particles. We found that the liquid comprises two types of SC-particles. The SC-clusters of second type form large space regions which represent the diffusion pathway for aluminum.

Molecular dynamic simulation is employed to study the structural properties and diffusion mechanism in sodium silicate (Na2O.4SiO4). Structural characteristics are clarified through the pair radial distribution function, distribution of SiOx coordination units, network structure. The simulation results reveal the structure of Na2O.4SiO4 liquid consists of one Si-O network that is mainly formed by SiO4 units. The spatial distribution of sodium is non-uniform; sodium tends to be in the non-bridging oxygen-simplexes and in larger-radius simplex. Moreover, the sodium density for non-bridging oxygen region is significantly higher than the one for other region. Further, we find that Si and O diffuse by bond break-reformation mechanism, while the motion of Na consists of two parallel processes. Firstly, Na atoms hop from one to another O within a disordered network where each bridging oxygen (BO) has one site, while a non-bridging oxygen (NBO) possesses two sites. The average resident time for Na staying near NBO is much longer than that near BO.
