The temperature dependence of the solid-liquid interfacial free energy, {\gamma}, is investigated for Al and Ni at the undercooled temperature regime based on a recently developed persistent-embryo method. The atomistic description of the…
While the role of the free energy barrier during nucleation is a text-book subject the importance of the kinetic factor is frequently underestimated. We obtained both quantities from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for the pure Ni and…
The crystal nucleation from liquid in most cases is too rare to be accessed within the limited timescales of the conventional molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Here, we developed a "persistent embryo" method to facilitate crystal…
Homogeneous nucleation processes are important for understanding solidification and the resulting microstructure of materials. Simulating this process requires accurately describing the interactions between atoms, hich is further…
The melting and crystallization of Al50Ni50} are studied by means of molecular dynamics computer simulations, using a potential of the embedded atom type to model the interactions between the particles. Systems in a slab geometry are…
Crystallization represents a fundamental process engendering solidification of a material and determines its microstructure. Driven by complex phenomena at the atomic scale, its understanding for alloys still remains elusive. The present…
In this work, Ni50Al50 alloy is taken into consideration as potential brazing material for joining ZrB2 ultra-high temperature ceramic. The results of experimental study on high temperature interfacial phenomena between molten binary…
By means of molecular-dynamics simulations, temperature driven diffusionless structural phase transitions in equi- and nearly equiatomic ordered nickel-titanium alloys were investigated. For this purpose, a model potential from the…
We study the influence of the liquid-vapor surface on the crystallization kinetics of supercooled metal alloys. While a good glass former, $\rm{Cu}_{50}\rm{Zr}_{50}$, shows no evidence of surface enhancement of crystallization,…
We present a partial free energy profile for the homogeneous nucleation of ice using an all-atom model of water at low supercooling, at which ice growth dynamics are reasonably accessible to simulation. We demonstrate that the free energy…
The pseudoelastic and pseudoplastic properties of NiTi alloys result from the closeness of the structures between the B2 cubic austenite and the B19' monoclinic martensite, and the facility to transform one into each other. Until now, the…
In this report, the evolution of the local atomic structure of the Zr50Nb50 melt was investigated by applying temperature (2600 to 300 K) and pressure (0 to 50 Gpa) using classical molecular dynamics simulations. To gain clear insight into…
We use molecular simulation to calculate the nucleation free energy barrier for the freezing of a 456 atom gold cluster over a range of temperatures. The results show that the embryo of the solid cluster grows at the vapor-surface interface…
We present a phase field theory for binary crystal nucleation. In the one-component limit, quantitative agreement is achieved with computer simulations (Lennard-Jones system) and experiments (ice-water system) using model parameters…
The properties of the interface between solid and melt are key to solidification and melting, as the interfacial free energy introduces a kinetic barrier to phase transitions. This makes solidification happen below the melting temperature,…
We extend an earlier semiclassical model to describe the dissipative motion of N atoms coupled to M modes inside a coherently driven high-finesse cavity. The description includes momentum diffusion via spontaneous emission and cavity decay.…
Classical theories of crystal nucleation and growth from the liquid assume activated processes that are interface limited, with the atoms individually joining the growing interface by jumps that occur at a rate that is determined by the…
The process of homogeneous crystal nucleation has been considered in a model liquid, where the interparticle interaction is described by a short-range spherical oscillatory potential. Mechanisms of initiating structural ordering in the…
The crystallization of a binary system is investigated in computer model which takes into account a temperature dependence of diffusion coefficient and a nonequilibrium partition of dissolved component of the alloy. The dependence of…
Molecular dynamics simulation of Al/Ni multilayered foils reveals a range of different reaction pathways depending on the temperature of the reaction. At the highest temperatures Fickian interdiffusion dominates the intermixing process. At…
