Monte Carlo simulations of real fluids

Univ.-Prof. Dr.–Ing. Karsten Meier (Chair of Thermodynamics, HSU) Thermodynamic properties of gases and liquids over wide ranges of temperature and pressure can be determined by molecular-dynamics or Monte Carlo simulations. In such simulations, the interactions between molecules are almost exclusively modeled by simple effective pair potentials, such as the Lennard-Jones potential. With such…

Enabling High-Throughput Studies of Reactive Materials

Christopher Lange (Department of Mechanical Engineering, HSU) The project aims at establishing an optimized simulation framework for the atomistic modeling of impact-induced chemical reactions in new weapon materials. In our mechano-chemical research we combine atomic and molecular dynamics simulations. Strain-dependent reaction paths are determined with static ab initio simulations and coupled…

benEFIT- Numerical simulation of non-destructive testing in concrete

Fabian Dethof (Professorship Engineering Materials and Building Preservation, HSU) In order to assess the current state of concrete structures like a buildings or bridges without causing any damage, different non-destructive testing (NDT) methods can be performed. Some of those methods are based on elastic wave propagation like the ultrasonic testing (UT)…
