Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Liquid Cu-Ni Alloy Using Embedded Atom Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Molecular dynamics simulation has been performed to explore the thermodynamics and dynamics properties of liquid Cu-Ni alloy based upon developed embedded atom methods (EAM), namely due to G. Bonny. The calculated liquid density shows that the potential underestimates the measured atomic density for Ni-rich composition. The calculated mixing enthalpy predicts the potential underestimates the mixing enthalpy when the concentration of Ni is increased beyond roughly 30 at. %. We make a conclusion from the fact that the G. Bonny’s model is not full perfect in describing the density and mixing enthalpy of Cu-Ni melts at the Ni-rich composition.
