This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Material properties play a critical role in durable products manufacturing. Estimation of the precise characteristics in different scales requires complex and expensive experimental measurements. Potentially, computational methods can provide a platform to determine the fundamental properties before the final experiment. Multi-scale computational modeling leads to the modeling of the various time, and length scales include nano, micro, meso, and macro scales. These scales can be modeled separately or in correlation with coarser scales. Depend on the interested scales modeling, the right selection of multi-scale methods leads to reliable results and affordable computational cost. The present dissertation deals with the problems in various length and time scales using computational methods include density functional theory (DFT), molecular mechanics (MM), molecular dynamics (MD), and finite element (FE) methods. Physical and chemical interactions in lower scales determine the coarser scale properties. Particles interaction modeling and exploring fundamental properties are significant challenges of computational science. Downscale modelings need more computational effort due to a large number of interacted atoms/particles. To deal with this problem and bring up a fine-scale (nano) as a coarse-scale (macro) problem, we extended an atomic-continuum framework. The discrete atomic models solve as a continuum problem using the computationally efficient FE method. MM or force field method based on a set of assumptions approximates a solution on the atomic scale. In this method, atoms and bonds model as a harmonic oscillator with a system of mass and springs. The negative gradient of the potential energy equal to the forces on each atom. In this way, each bond's total potential energy includes bonded, and non-bonded energies are simulated as equivalent structural strain energies. Finally, the chemical nature of the atomic bond is modeled as a piezoelectric beam element that solves by the FE method. ...

Download or read book Theoretical Modelling of Transition Metal Oxide Compounds for Application in Electronic and Electrochemical Systems written by Patrick Conlin and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Density functional theory (DFT) is the predominant methodology for predictive theoretical calculation of material properties used today. It is extensively applied in solid-state physics, chemistry, and materials science to model a wide range of systems on the atomic scale. The popularity of DFT is due in large part to the high-degree of accuracy provided by the methodology, coupled with a relatively low computational cost compared to alternatives like all-electron models. While DFT has been very successful at predicting diverse sets of material properties, there are crucial areas where DFT remains deficient. One of the most notable of these deficiencies is the inability of DFT to accurately describe transition metal compounds. Transition metal compounds are a huge material space with many technological applications. A comprehensive understanding of the physics underlying commonly used computational methods is required in order to best to correct these methods for a given class of compounds. This work begins with a survey of available methodologies for modelling transition metal oxides. Subsequent sections detail the properties of compounds investigated for specific technological application. Particular attention is given to high-mobility p-type semiconductors, solid-electrolytes for Li-ion batteries, and properties of amorphous phases.
