Multiscale Modeling of Nanoflows

Drazer G., Acrivos A., Khusid B., Koplik J., New Jersey Institute of Technology, US

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we identified in previous work a new adsorption phenomenon in which, for poorly wetting fluids, a suspended particle, initially moving along the center of the nanochannel, is adsorbed onto the tube [...]

Excited Electronic States and Production Optimizations for Promising Nano-Agents

Slanina Z., Kobayashi K., Nagase S., Academia Sinica, TW

Very high temperatures of fullerene and nanotube syntheses do allow for a significant population of excited electronic states and thus for non-negligible electronic partition functions. This unique feature can have some interesting consequences for computed [...]

Heterogeneous Thin Films of Martensitic Materials with Application to Large Strain Microactuators

Shu Y.C., California Institute of Technology, US

We propose a multiscale modeling to study the effective behavior of a heterogeneous thin film accounting in detail for the underlying microstructure, grain sizes and the film thickness. Motivated by the recent study of shape-memory [...]

Multiscale Modeling of Stress-Mediated Diffusion in Silicon, Ab Initio to Continuum

Windl W., Laudon M., Daw M.S., Carlson N.N., Masquelier M.P., Motorola, Inc., US

The introduction of new ‘back end’ materials, as well as the further scaling of silicon device dimensions, has raised the level of stress in dvice structures. Current engineering simulations of diffusion neglect the direct effect [...]
