MSE 614: Modeling & Simulation in Materials Science & Engineering: Classical Mechanics

In the spring semester of 2020, graduate students from several 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. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic that occurred during the spring semester of 2020, the final posters were delivered via Zoom. The images below capture the poster session via screenshots.

The poster session featured a competition based on the votes cast by the students registered in MSE 614.

The results of the Student-Vote Competition are as follows.

Student Vote First Place (tie): Chao Zheng (MSE) - Molecular Dynamics Study of Cooling Rate and Pressure Effects on Phase Transformation of CuNi Alloy

Student Vote First Place (tie): Anirban Roy (MABE) - MD Simulation of Water/Platinum Interface

Student Vote Third Place (three-way-tie): Amirfarzad Behnam (CEE) - Peridynamics Simulation of Initiationand Propagration of a Crack in a Pre-notched Plate

Student Vote Third Place (three-way-tie): Jaswanth Bommidi (MSE) - Deformation Twinning Studies in FCC Metals
