The specific features of the dynamics of oxygen ions in Ме2O · SiO2 (Ме = Li, Na, K, Cs) and Na2O·ZnO·P2O5 melts at а temperature of 2000 K were investigated bу the molecular dynamics method. It is demonstrated that, as in the systems studied earlier, the formation of defect complexes is а necessary condition fог an oxygen diffusion event to bе successful. The scenarios of generating defect соmplexes аrе described, and the lifetimes of these complexes are calculated. The structure of the defect complexes is determined. It is shown that two-membered rings, free and threefold-coordinated oxygen ions сап also bе involved in the formation of defect complexes.

Predicting squeeze-film air damping of resonators in rare air is crucial in the design of high-Q devices for various applications. In the past, there have been two approaches to treat the squeeze-film air damping in non-continuum regime: using effective viscosity coefficient and using the molecular dynamics method. And most of the previous work focused on devices in which the rarefaction effects of air are not significant. For such cases, continuum theory is often adequate. However, we have investigated the air damping on oscillating structures in the free molecular regime in which classical continuum theory is no longer valid. Based on this premise, Hutcherson (2004 J. Micromesh. Microeng. 14 1726-1733) has developed a molecular dynamics simulation code and used in predicting quality factors of an oscillating micro-plate at low pressures. However, his work is valid only for non-perforated micro-plate. This paper, a brief description of the molecular dynamics method is presented first. Then a molecular dynamics simulation code has been developed and used in predicting quality factors of a perforated oscillating micro-plate in free molecular regime. And we have found that the molecular dynamics simulation results have shown an excellent agreement with the experimental data of Kwok et al. Finally, the limitations of the present molecular dynamics simulation code have been reported.

SiC is one of the most important third-generation semiconductors, which has important application value. Based on the nonequilibrium Molecular Dynamics method, a model of 3C-SiC nanowire is proposed, and thermal transport under different temperatures is investigated. The results show about 200K the thermal conductivity of 3C-SiC nanowire approaches to the peak 7.84W/m.K.

The molecular dynamics method is used to simulate microcrack healing in copper nano-plate during heating. During microcrack healing, the tip of microcrack is blunted and deforms to round shape, the microcrack becomes smaller and smaller until it is healed through slip bands emitting from the pre-crack tip and expanding to the top and bottom of the copper nano-plate. The healing time is different in different temperature. The healing processes in different temperature present different slip bands for crack healing. When temperature is below 650K, the healing time decreases dramatically with temperature increase. When temperature is above 650K, the healing time decreases smoothly with temperature increase. The critical temperature of microcrack healing in copper nano-plate without pre-existing dislocations is about 400K.

This paper describes the calculation of material properties of copper (Cu) using the molecular dynamics method. Vacancy formation energy, bulk modulus, surface energy and melting point are calculated using different potentials such as the Morse potential and Embedded Atom Method (EAM). Results obtained from different potentials are discussed and compared with experimental results.

The binding mode of sorafenib with VEGFR2 was studied using molecular docking and molecular dynamics method. The docking results show that sorafenib forms hydrogen bonds with Asp1046, Cys919, and Glu885 of VEGFR2 receptor. Molecular dynamics simulation suggests that the hydrogen bond involving Asp1046 is the most stable one, and it is almost preserved during all the MD simulation time. The hydrogen bond formed with Cys919 occurs frequently after 6 ns, while the bifurcated hydrogen bonds involving Glu885 occurs occasionally. Meantime, molecular dynamics simulations of VEGFR2 with 11 other urea-substituted aryloxy compounds have also been performed, and the results indicate that a potent VEGFR2 inhibitor should have lower interaction energy with VEGFR2 and create at least 2 hydrogen bonds with VEGFR2.
