Researchers Discuss Atomistic-to-Continuum (AtC) Coupling
نویسندگان
چکیده
On March 20, 2006, researchers from around the world gathered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for a two-day workshop on atomistic-to-continuum (AtC) coupling analysis. The Computer Science Research Institute at Sandia National Laboratories sponsored the workshop, which was organized by Claude Le Bris (École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées), Jacob Fish (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute), and Pavel Bochev, Rich Lehoucq, and Greg Wagner (Sandia National Laboratories).∗ The goal was to understand and quantify the limits in atomistic-to-continuum (AtC) coupling and their impact on multiscale simulations.

Blending Methods for Coupling Atomistic and Continuum Models
In this paper we review recent developments in blending methods for atomistic-to-continuum (AtC) coupling in material statics problems. Such methods tie together atomistic and continuum models by using a bridge domain that connects the two models. There are several reasons why AtC coupling methods (of which blending methods are a subset) are important and have been subject to an increased inter...
متن کاملOn Atomistic-to-continuum (atc) Coupling by Blending
A mathematical framework for the coupling of atomistic and continuum models by blending them over a subdomain subject to a constraint is developed. Using the framework, four classes of atomistic-to-continuum (AtC) blending methods are established, their consistency is studied, and their relative merits discussed. In addition, the framework helps clarify the origin of ghost forces and formalizes...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Optimization-Based Atomistic-to-Continuum Coupling Method
Atomistic-to-Continuum (AtC) coupling methods are a novel means of computing the properties of a discrete crystal structure, such as those containing defects, that combine the accuracy of an atomistic (fully discrete) model with the efficiency of a continuum model. In this note we extend the optimization-based AtC, formulated in [17] for linear, one-dimensional problems to multi-dimensional set...

a. Mathematical upscaling: derivation of coarse-scale equations directly from atomistic equations using Generalized Mathematical Homogenization theory (Fish, Chen, Li, 2007). b. Computational upscaling: reducing the complexity of solving an atomistic problem to a manageable size that can be adapted based on available computational resources. Our model reduction approach is based on the space-ti...
