2 Nanomaterials in technology Improved chemical resistance, Improved hardness and abrasion resistance, Increased tensile strength and flexibility, Favorable melting points, Favorable magnetic properties, Increased thermal and electrical conductivity, and Favorable surface-chemistry effects that improve the ability of a powder to be dispersed in a liquid.

3 CAD is now used in every part of industry Civil engineering, Chemical Engineering, Areonautics, Medical and pharmaceutical

4 Computer Aided Design Growing widely available computational power changed the product development process. We are able to predict properties of the system long before it was even created Golden management rule: if you want to optimize you have have numbers, if you have numbers you have to know how to calculate it, if you want to calculate you have to have tools computers + physics + chemistry + mathematics

6 Molecular modelling Length [m] 10 3 DPD 10-3 Molecular Dynamics, Monte Carlo Coarse-Grained CFD 10-9 Ab Initio Time [s]

7 Ab initio methods Predicting of physical and chemical properties of materials from quantum theory Very accurate Without any empirical parameters Calculating parameters of forcefields for Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo methods Electronic properties of matter (charges, reactivity, dipole moments, IR spectrum and much more ) Very accurate geometrical parameters

8 Ab initio methods Size of a system is very limited (up to hundred atoms) Long computing time for even small systems We need high computing power Any movement of atoms or timedependent methods need much more computing time and power Theory is not so easy

9 Molecular dynamics Millions of atoms thousands of cores Solving of Newton equation of motion for all atoms Bigger systems (thousands of atoms) Phenomena depending on time (diffusion, cracking of materials, melting, solvation and so on ) Introduction of a temperature and pressure to the system

10 Molecular dynamics Size is still limited (up to billion of atoms) Simulated time is not enough long (bio-physical or chemical processes may take seconds) Everything depends on forcefield! Disregarding of quantum nature of matter (single atom has no energy no interaction with anything) Very large systems need high computing power and time

11 Monte Carlo method Averages over time (MD) are replaced by averages over states of a system States of a system are selected randomly

12 Monte Carlo method Cannot simulate time dependent properties Size is still limited Everything depends on forcefield! How to properly generate random state of a system, is it really random?

13 Coarse-Grained method Similar method to molecular dynamics - groups of atoms are replaced with superatoms Possibility to simulate very large systems Need to describe interactions between superatoms Disregarding of properties of separate atoms Everything depends on forcefield!

14 Macroscale Finite elements methods: CFD, FDM itp. tensions, flow of mass, temperature, etc.

15 When do we need molecular modeling? Beam deformation problem Question: displacement function d z x Governing equation: EI zz 4 d z,0 x 4 + q z = 0 Geometry: I zz = bh3 12 Boundary condition: q z = ρga Integration d z x = ρga 24EI zz x 4 d z x x How to obtain Young s modulus E?

16 How to obtain Young s modulus - experiment Laboratory measurements Molecular modeling A A L L + Δl F F = kδl E = Lk A

17 What is our goal? - To gain extensive knowledge about state-of-the-art methods of predicting and deisigning properties of material using molecular approach, - To be able to predict basic properties of the various physical systems and conntect the results with macroscopic values

104 What is missing? 1. Forces forcefields (quantum chemical computations), empirical potentials. 2. Initial positions crystal structure, fluids order, gas density etc. 3. Initial velocities zero, random, temperature.

105 Initial positions Initial positions of atoms should be as close to equilibrium positions (minimal energy) as possible scientific knowledge To big deviation from equilibrium positions results in unphysical behaviour large forces

106 Temperature How to introduce temperature to the system? Simplest solution is to draw velocities from Boltzmann distribution for fixed T:

107 Temperature of the system is its average kinetic energy

108 Temperature is not constant Unperfect solution of the Verlet s algorithm error cumulation

125 Thermostating & Barostating Simulation system is dynamical. In order to preserve the system specific temperature or pressure we employ in the calculation the concept of thermostat and barostat. Conceptionaly these are separate systems with defined pressure an temperature connected to our simulation balls. Mathematicaly we simply add two Newtons equations, additionaly equations defining temperature and pressure.

126 Pressure virial theorem Virial theorem: Pressure in the system:

127 Berendsen Thermostat The velocities are scaled at each step, such that the rate of change of temperature is proportional to the difference in temperature. Scaling factor:

128 Berendsen Barostat. In barostat the mechanism is similar: Scaling factor:

129 NPT V nt/p During simulation ensemble uses barostat and thermostat to equilibrate temperature and pressure. Varying, operating both: P and T results in changes of volume of the simulation box. In other words, our goal is to reach density of water about 1.0 g/cc, that is a property of our system in 298 K and 1 bar.

182 Ewald summation method Ewald summation is an algorithm wich effciently calculates the interactions between periodic mirrors of atoms or molecules. Van der Waals interactions deacys like 1 r6 so there is no porblem usually periodic mirrors are over the cutoff. In case of Coulomb electrostatic interactions k q iq i_mirror potential r i i_mirror deacys slow. Ewald proposed 1 + which states for short range, rapidly r r r varying function and long range flat function. The f r = erfc r = 2 exp t 2 dt. π x = f r 1 f r

Beyond some distance R c particles (atoms) are discetized charge density gives a contribution to neighbouring grid nodes.
