    Temperature-Dependent Hierarchical Multi-Scale Modeling of Nano-Materials Considering Surface Effect

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ghahremani, Pegah (Author) ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In continuum mechanics, the constitutive models are usually based on the Cauchy-Born (CB) hypothesis which seeks the intrinsic characteristics of the material via the atomistic information and it is valid in small deformation. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the temperature effect on the stability and size dependency of Cauchy-Born hypothesis and a novel temperature-dependent multi-scale method is developed to investigate the role of temperature on surface effects in the analysis of nano-scale materials. Three-dimensional temperature-related Cauchy-Born formulation are developed for crystalline structure and the stability and size dependency of temperature-related... 

    Continuum Analysis of Defects Based on Atomistic Simulat

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Heidarzadeh, Narges (Author) ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor) ; Jahanshahi, Mohsen (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    In this study, a new multi-scale hierarchical technique has been employed to investigate the role of temperature on nano-plates with hex atomic structure. Different number of primary edge dislocations is considered and the temperature varies from 0 up to 800 K. Primary edge dislocations are created by proper adjustment of atomic positions to resemble discrete dislocations (DD’s) and then the application of equations of motion to the relaxed configuration of this adjustment. The interatomic potential used for atomistic simulation is Finnis-Sinclair Embedded-Atom-Method (FS-EAM) as many-body interatomic potential and the Nose-Hoover thermostat has been implemented to adjust the modulation of... 

    Temperature-dependent Multiscale Simulation of Heterogeneous FCC Crystals

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Jafarian, Navid (Author) ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor) ; Jahanshahi, Mohsen (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    In this study, a novel multiscale hierarchical molecular dynamics (MD) – finite element (FE) coupling method is proposed to illustrate the influence of temperature on mechanical properties of heterogeneous nano-crystalline structures. The embedded-atom method (EAM) many-body interatomic potential is implemented to consider pairwise interactions between atoms in the metallic alloys with face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattice structure at different temperatures. In addition, the Nose-Hoover thermostat is employed to adjust the fluctuation of temperature. In order to calculate the equivalent lattice parameter, a weight average between the lattice parameters of atomic structures is utilized. The...
