Mass transfer has been studied at atomic scale by molecular dynamics simulation of friction stir welding and vibration-assisted friction stir welding using the modified embedded atom potential. It was shown that increasing the velocity movement and decreasing the angle velocity of the tool reduce the penetration depth of atoms into the opposite crystallite in the connected pair of metals. It was shown also that increasing the amplitude of vibrations applied to the friction stir welding tool results in increasing the interpenetration of atoms belonging to the crystallites joined

Molecular dynamics simulation of the solidification behavior of AlCoCuFeNi nanowire was carried out basing on the embedded atom potential with different cooling rates (1∙1011 , 1∙1012, and 1∙1013 K/s). To simulate an infinite nanowire, a periodical boundary condition along the nanowire axis direction was applied. The crystallization of the nanowire was characterized by studying the temperature dependence of the potential energy. The adaptive common neighbor analysis (CNA) was performed and the radial distribution function (RDF) was calculated to determine the structure and lattice parameters of phases of the AlCoCuFeNi nanowire. It has been shown that the final structure of investigated nanoparticle changes from amorphous to crystalline with decreasing of the rate of cooling.

The molecular dynamics (MD) simulation employing the embedded atom method (EAM) has been performed to examine the phase stability of Pt nanoclusters, Ptn (n=38, 147, 309 and 561 atoms) with size and temperature. From heating and freezing curves of the nanoclusters, the clusters (Pt147, Pt309 and Pt561) larger than 1 nm in size showed an icosahedral morphology near 460 ~ 660 K during freezing, where the formation energy of the icosahedral phase is 0.051 eV/atom for Pt147, 0.056eV/atom for Pt309 and 0.067 eV/atom for Pt561. We also investigated coalescence between two Pt nanoclusters and observed that the minimum size of the coalescent one is around 1 nm at 673 K.

AbstractThe behavior of a metallic grain boundary at high temperatures is studied using an embedded atom potential. A recently developed molecular dynamics code is used which allows the simulation of an isolated grain boundary at temperatures as high as the bulk melting point. The stability of the boundary below the melting point is studied and compared with earlier investigations which have suggested the existence of a “premelting“ transition. It is found that the boundary migrates at high temperature but remains well defined up to the bulk melting point. In contrast to simulations of ideal crystals, it was not possible to superheat the grain boundary due to the nucleation of bulk melting at the boundary.

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.

Fundamental understanding of the water in graphene is crucial to optimally design and operate the sustainable energy, water desalination, and bio-medical systems. A numerous atomic-scale studies have been reported, primarily articulating the surface interactions (interatomic potentials) between the water and graphene. However, a systematic comparative study among the various interatomic potentials is rare, especially for the water transport confined in the graphene nanostructure. In this study, the effects of different interatomic potentials and gap sizes on water self-diffusivity are investigated using the molecular dynamics simulation at T = 300 K. The water is confined in the rigid graphene nanogap with the various gap sizes Lz = 0.7 to 4.17 nm, using SPC/E and TIP3P water models. The water self-diffusivity is calculated using the mean squared displacement approach. It is found that the water self-diffusivity in the confined region is lower than that of the bulk water, and it decreases as the gap size decreases and the surface energy increases. Also, the water self-diffusivity nearly linearly decreases with the increasing surface energy to reach the bulk water self-diffusivity at zero surface energy. The obtained results provide a roadmap to fundamentally understand the water transport properties in the graphene geometries and surface interactions.

This article deals with a Ti-Al alloy system. Molecular dynamics simulation was used to simulate and explore the mass transfer behavior during the laser fabrication process at atomic scale. The research goal is to investigate the mass transfer mechanism at atomic scale and the movement of solute atoms during the laser fabrication process. The mean square displacement (MSD), radial distribution function (RDF), atomic number density, and atomic displacement vector were calculated to characterize it. The results show that the TiAl alloy is completely melted when heated up to 2400 K, and increasing the temperature past 2400 K has little effect on mass transfer. As the heating time increases, the diffusion coefficient gradually decreases, the diffusion weakens, and the mass transfer process gradually stabilizes. In Ti-Al binary alloys, the diffusion coefficients of different solute atoms are related to the atomic fraction. During the melting process, the alloy particle system has a greater diffusion coefficient than the elemental particle system.

Molecular dynamics simulation of the solidification behavior of liquid nickel nanowires has been carried out based on the embedded atom potential with different cooling rates. The nanowires constructed with a face-centered cubic structure and a one-dimensional (1D) periodical boundary condition along the wire axis direction. It is found that the final structure of Ni nanowires strongly depend on the cooling rates during solidification from liquid. With decreasing cooling rates the final structure of the nanowires varies from amorphous to crystalline via helical multi-shelled structure.

High Throughput Virtual Screening

The bacteria expressing New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) can hydrolyze all β-lactam antibiotics including carbapenems, causing multi-drug resistance. The worldwide emergence and dissemination of gene blaNDM-1 (produces NDM-1) in hospital and community settings, rising problems for public health. Indeed, there is an urgent need for NDM-1 inhibitors to manage antibiotic resistance. Here, we have identified novel non-β-lactam ring-containing inhibitors of NDM-1 by applying a high-throughput virtual screening of lead-like subset of ZINC database. The screened compounds were followed for the molecular docking, the molecular dynamics simulation, and then enzyme kinetics assessment. The adopted screening procedure funnels out five novel inhibitors of NDM-1 including ZINC10936382, ZINC30479078, ZINC41493045, ZINC7424911, and ZINC84525623. The molecular mechanics-generalized born surface area and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation showed that ZINC84525623 formed the most stable complex with NDM-1. Furthermore, analyses of the binding pose after MD simulation revealed that ZINC84525623 formed two hydrogen bonds (electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction) with key amino acid residues of the NDM-1 active site. The docking binding free energy and docking binding constant for the ZINC84525623 and NDM-1 interaction were estimated to be −11.234 kcal/mol, and 1.74 × 108 M−1 respectively. Steady-state enzyme kinetics in the presence of ZINC84525623 show the decreased catalytic efficiency (i.e., kcat/Km) of NDM-1 on various antibiotics. The findings of this study would be helpful in identifying novel inhibitors against other β-lactamases from a pool of large databases. Furthermore, the identified inhibitor (ZINC84525623) could be developed as efficient drug candidates.
