Abstract To reveal the effect of superhydrophobic rough surface on the friction properties, molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the friction properties of Couette flow. In particular, the influence of load on the flow properties is considered in this work. Results show that there is a critical load (Pcrit), and the friction-reduction properties of superhydrophobic surfaces with stripes are only presented when the load is smaller than the Pcrit. With the decrease in the distance between stripes, the Pcrit is increased. Under a low load, the friction force is increased with increasing the distance between stripes. However, under high load condition we observe an opposite trend. The height of stripe has little impacts on the Pcrit.

Multicanonical molecular dynamics simulations are applied, for the first time, to study the liquid-solid and solid-solid transitions in Lennard-Jones (LJ) clusters. The transition temperatures are estimated based on the peak position in the heat capacity versus temperature curve. For LJ31, LJ58 and LJ98, our results on the solid-solid transition temperature are in good agreement with previous ones. For LJ309, the predicted liquid-solid transition temperature is also in agreement with previous result.

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the dissociation inhibiting mechanism of lecithin for structure I hydrates. Adsorption characteristics of lecithin and PVP (poly (N-vinylpyrrolidine)) on the hydrate surfaces were performed in the NVT ensemble at temperatures of 277K and the hydrate dissociation process were simulated in the NPT ensemble at same temperature. The results show that hydrate surfaces with lecithin is more stable than the ones with PVP for the lower potential energy. The conformation of lecithin changes constantly after the balanced state is reached while the PVP molecular dose not. Lecithin molecule has interaction with lecithin nearby and hydrocarbon-chains of lecithin molecules will form a network to prevent the diffusion of water and methane molecules, which will narrow the available space for hydrate methane and water movement. Compared with PVP-hydrate simulation, analysis results (snapshots and mass density profile) of the dissociation simulations show that lecithin-hydrate dissociates more slowly.

AbstractA series of high-energy, up to 20 keV, displacement cascades in iron have been investigated for times up to 200 ps at 100 K using the method of molecular dynamics simulation. Thesimulations were carried out using the MOLDY code and a modified version of the many-bodyinteratomic potential developed by Finnis and Sinclair. The paper focuses on those results obtained at the highest energies, 10 and 20 keV. The results indicate that the fraction of the Frenkel pairs surviving in-cascade recombination remains fairly high in iron and that the fraction of the surviving point defects that cluster is lower than in materials such as copper. In particular, vacancy clustering appears to be inhibited in iron. Some of the interstitial clusters were observed to exhibit an unexpectedly complex, three-dimensional morphology. The observations are discussed in terms of their relevance to microstructural evolution and mechanical property changes in irradiated iron-based alloys.

ABSTRACTMany-body forces obtained by the Embedded-Atom Method (EAM) [41 are incorporated into the description of low energy collisions and surface ejection processes in molecular dynamics simulations of sputtering from metal targets. Bombardments of small, single crystal Cu targets (400–500 atoms) in three different orientations ({100}, {110}, {111}) by 5 keV Ar+ ions have been simulated. The results are compared to simulations using purely pair-wise additive interactions. Significant differences in the spectra of ejected atoms are found.

The underlying principle of surface wettability has obtained great attentions for the development of novel functional surfaces. Molecular dynamics simulations has been widely utilized to obtain molecular-level details of surface wettability that is commonly quantified in term of contact angle of a liquid droplet on the surface. In this work, the sensitivity of contact angle calculation at various degrees of surface hydrophilicity to the adopted potential models of water: SPC/E, TIP4P, and TIP5P, is investigated. The simulation cell consists of a water droplet on a structureless surface whose hydrophilicity is modified by introducing a scaling factor to the water-surface interaction parameter. The simulation shows that the differences in contact angle described by the potential models are systematic and become more visible with the increase of the surface hydrophilicity. An alternative method to compute a contact angle based on the height of center-of-mass of the droplet is also evaluated, and the resulting contact angles are generally larger than those determined from the liquid-gas interfacial line.

This work presents a first-principles molecular dynamics study of hydrogen storage in Li doped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The decomposition and adsorption between Li atom and H2 molecular are studied by bonds analysis and energy evolvement of interaction process. The modify effects of Li doped SWCNTs are studied by band structure and of states density analysis, as well as the structure transformation of SWCNTs. The enhanced hydrogen storage in Li doped SWCNTs at room temperature and common pressure is studied by first principles molecular dynamics simulation. The relationship between dope position of Li atoms and hydrogen storage also studied, and finally confirm the best dope position and provide a reference for the further research of alkali metals doped CNT.
