The modified attachment energy model was applied to predict the crystal morphology of hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane/1,3-dinitrobenzene (HNIW/DNB) cocrystal in ethanol. A double-layer interface structure was established based on experiments. Molecular dynamics simulation was employed to investigate the interaction of flat faces and ethanol solvents. We used periodic bond chains and roughness calculations to analyze the characteristics of the HNIW/DNB cocrystal. The crystal morphology of the HNIW/DNB cocrystal is mainly composed of the (001), (010), (102), and (111) faces in vacuum. The (001) face occupies the largest area (49.54%). In ethanol, the area of the (001) face increases to 68.58%. Ethanol molecules are adsorbed on the polar face through hydrogen bonding. In the slowest growth direction, two HNIW layers and one DNB layer alternately appear. The higher molecular recognition of the (001) face of HNIW/DNB resulted in this face becoming the most important growth face. Meanwhile, we also predicted the crystal morphologies of ε-HNIW and DNB in ethanol. The prediction morphologies are in excellent agreement with the experimental shapes. These simulation results can provide guidance for the recrystallization of HNIW/DNB.

The Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin films is an important property. This paper focused to investigate the Youngs Modulus of Multilayered Ni/Cu Multilayered nanoThin Films under different condition by Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The NVT ensemble and COMPASS potential function were employed in the simulation. The multilayered nanothin film contained the Ni and Cu thin films in sequence. From simulation results, it is found that the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film is different at different lattice orientations, temperatures and strain rate. After experiments, it can be found that the Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film in the plane (100) is highest. As thickness of the thin film and system temperature rises, Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film is reduced instead. And, the strain rate increases, the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film will also increase.

This method of parallel computing into nanoindentation molecular dynamics simulation (MDS), the author uses a nine-node parallel computer and takes the single crystal aluminum as the experimental example, to implement the large-scale process simulation of nanoindentation. Compared the simulation results with experimental results is to verify the reliability of the simulation. The method improves the computational efficiency and shortens the simulation time and the expansion of scale simulation can significantly reduce the impact of boundary conditions, effectively improve the accuracy of the molecular dynamics simulation of nanoindentation.
