MSE 614: Modeling & Simulation in Materials Science & Engineering: Classical Mechanics
In the spring semester of 2018, graduate students from seven departments and programs at the University of Tennessee took a course in Classical Molecular Dynamics Simulation offered by Professor David Keffer. As part of their final project, the students identified a system of interest to them, formulated a problem statement and investigated it using MD simulation implemented in LAMMPS. The project had three deliverables: (1) a written report, (2) a poster presented during an in-class poster session and (3) an interactive webpage featuring a structure or animation from their simulation. This page presents some photos from the poster session component of the final project.
The poster session features two competitions. The first competition was based on the votes cast by the students registered in MSE 614. The second competition consisted of votes cast by visitors (faculty and other students) who came to the session. There were so many posters worthy of recognition. Here we simply highlight only a few.
The results of the Student-Vote Competition are as follows.
Student Vote First Place (tie): Mohmad Thakur (CEE) - Estimation of Contact Angle of Soil Water Interface Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Student Vote First Place (tie): Robert Minneci (MSE) - Wetting of Copper Nanoparticles on Copper 110 Surface with EAM
Student Vote Third Place: Mahdi Boudaghi-Khajehnobar (MABE) - Study of the Dynamics of Short Chain Linear Polymers in a Semi-Dilute Solution
Student Vote Honorable Mention: Xuesong Fan (MSE) - Molecular Dynamics Simulation for Uniaxial deformations in Zr50Cu40Al10
The results of the General Public-Vote Competition are as follows.
Public Vote First Place: Mohmad Thakur (CEE) - Estimation of Contact Angle of Soil Water Interface Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Public Vote Second Place (tie): Leo Zella (MSE) - Forming Ni50Pt50 Metallic Glass with LJ/EAM Hybrid Potential
Public Vote Second Place (tie): Camera Foster (MSE) - Using Different Interatomic Potentials to Calculate the Diffusion Coefficient of Impurity Atoms in Liquid Silicon
