...: determination of the gas–wall potential, simulation and modeling of the gas–wall collisions, simulation and modeling of the anisotropic slip effects. The density functional theory (DFT) is used to examine the interaction between the Pt–Ar gas–wall couple. This potential is then passed into molecular dynamics...

...Tengfei Luo; John R. Lloyd Ab initio molecular dynamics, which employs density functional theory, is used to study thermal energy transport phenomena in nanoscale structures. Thermal equilibration in multiple thin layer structures with thicknesses less than 1 nm per layer is simulated. Different...
