The diffusive phase transformations occurring in feldspar, a common mineral in the crust of the Earth, are essential for reconstructing the thermal histories of magmatic and metamorphic rocks. Due to the long timescales over which these…
Alkali diffusion is a first-order control for microstructure and compositional evolution of feldspar during cooling from high temperatures of primary magmatic or metamorphic crystallization, and knowledge of the respective diffusion…
The size-dependent phase stability of gamma-Al2O3 was studied by large-scale molecular dynamics simulations over a wide temperature range from 300 to 900 K. For the gamma-Al2O3 crystal, a bulk transformation to alpha-Al2O3 by an FCC-to-HCP…
The interplay of disorder and strong correlations in quantum many-body systems remains an open question. That is despite much progress made in recent years with ultracold atoms in optical lattices to better understand phenomena such as…
In this paper, a hybrid quasi-static atomistic simulation method at finite temperature is developed, which combines the advantages of MD for thermal equilibrium and atomic-scale finite element method (AFEM) for efficient equilibration. Some…
We employ the numerical linked-cluster expansion to study finite-temperature properties of the uniform cubic lattice Hubbard model in the thermodynamic limit for a wide range of interaction strengths and densities. We carry out the…
Tailoring the performance of next-generation high entropy materials requires a deep understanding of the competition between entropy-driven random solid solution and enthalpy-driven chemical ordering. Investigating such order and disorder…
A computational approach to determine the equilibrium structures of nanoclusters in the whole temperature range from 0 K to melting is developed. Our approach relies on Parallel Tempering Molecular Dynamics (PTMD) simulations complemented…
We discuss some recent results connected with the properties of temperature states of quantum disordered systems. This analysis falls within the natural framework of operator algebras. Among the results quoted here, we recall some ergodic…
The physical behavior of glass-forming liquids presents complex features of both dynamic and thermodynamic nature. Some studies indicate the presence of thermodynamic anomalies and of crossovers in the dynamic properties, but their origin…
Metals which can form intermetallic compounds by an exothermic reaction constitute a class of reactive materials with multiple applications. Ni-Al laminates of thin alternating layers are being considered as model nanometric metallic…
Atomistic simulations provide insights into structure-property relations on an atomic size and length scale, that are complementary to the macroscopic observables that can be obtained from experiments. Quantitative predictions, however, are…
In order to establish the thermodynamic stability of a system, knowledge of its Gibbs free energy is essential. Most often, the Gibbs free energy is predicted within the CALPHAD framework using models employing thermodynamic properties,…
In this article we review the thermodynamics of liquids in the framework of the inherent structure formalism. We then present calculations of the distribution of the basins in the potential energy of a binary Lennard-Jones mixture as a…
Neutron irradiation tends to promote disorder in ordered alloys through the action of the thermal spikes that it generates, while simultaneously introducing point defects and defect clusters. As they migrate, these point defects will…
The static and dynamic structure of liquid Al is studied using the orbital free ab-initio molecular dynamics method. Two thermodynamic states along the coexistence line are considered, namely T = 943 K and 1323 K for which X-ray and neutron…
We have studied the one-dimensional periodic, symmetric Anderson model at half filling in the presence of disorder using finite-temperature quantum Monte Carlo techniques. We have examined for the first time the disorder both in…
The high-temperature properties of the Al(111) surface are studied by molecular-dynamics simulation. This surface does not melt below the bulk melting point, but can be superheated. Superheating of metal surfaces has been recently observed…
Here we investigate how local properties of particles in a thermal bath influence the thermodynamics of the bath. We utilize nanothermodynamics, based on two postulates: that small systems can be treated self-consistently by coupling to an…
In this study, an efficient first-principles approach for calculating the thermodynamic properties of mixed metal oxides at high temperatures is demonstrated. More precisely, this procedure combines density functional theory and harmonic…
