Abstract:

The multiscale algorithm based on the boundary element method (BEM) coupled with a discrete atomistic model is presented in this paper. The application of BEM reduces the total number of degrees of freedom in the multiscale model. The atomic model uses empirical pair-wise potentials to describe interactions between atoms. The Newton-Raphson method is applied to solve a nanoscale model. Some results of the numerical simulations are shown to examine the elaborated algorithm.
