Atomistic Modeling Techniques to Materials Failure

Atomistic modeling has been at the cutting edge of the computational investigation of nanomaterials, where interfacial regions often play a critical role. Atomistic modeling techniques use modern computing power to explicitly include every atom in modeling of a material. As interacting atoms are the foundation of all materials science, atomistic modeling has helped enable a new field of computational materials studies. This book presents the complete fundamentals of materials modeling for graduate students and researchers in physics, materials. This book will provide readers with a basic understanding about the fundamentals, application areas, and potential of classical molecular dynamics for problems in mechanics of materials.
