Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of new material research and development, in particular to a material mechanics property full-coupling multi-scale simulation method with molecular scale precision. BACKGROUND
[0002] The research and development of new materials is one of the key driving forces for modern scientific and technological progress. However, the traditional trial-and-error method still dominates the material development process, which not only leads to high research and development costs, but also prolongs the research and development cycle. The mechanical properties of materials, including hardness, toughness, and elastic modulus, are among the most critical attributes in materials science. These properties are closely related to the composition, microstructure, and preparation method of the material.
[0003] Firstly, the composition of the material is the basis for determining its mechanical properties. Different elements and compounds, due to their different atomic structures and chemical bond properties, will give the material different physical and chemical properties. For example, carbon can form two completely different allotropes, graphite and diamond, which have very different mechanical properties: graphite is soft and slippery, while diamond is the hardest substance in nature.
[0004] Secondly, the preparation method of the material also has a profound impact on the mechanical properties. Traditional casting, forging, rolling, and other methods, as well as modern powder metallurgy, chemical vapor deposition, 3D printing, and other technologies, will change the microstructure of the material to varying degrees, thereby affecting its macroscopic mechanical properties. For example, by controlling the cooling rate, the grain size of the metal can be adjusted, thereby affecting its strength and toughness.
[0005] However, the current research and development of new materials still faces a major challenge: the lack of a quantitative description between the precise molecular structure and the macroscopic mechanical properties. This is mainly because the microstructure of the material is extremely complex, and the multi-scale characteristics from the atomic scale to the macroscopic scale are difficult to fully capture and describe using traditional experimental methods. This requires us to develop new theories and computational methods to achieve seamless connection from the molecular scale to the macroscopic scale.
[0006] The development of multi-scale simulation methods makes it possible to solve this problem. Through computational chemistry, molecular dynamics simulation, finite element analysis, and other means, we can simulate the structure and behavior of materials at the atomic and molecular level, and then predict their mechanical properties at the macroscopic scale. However, the above methods are limited to a single scale, and small-scale simulation methods only provide mechanical parameters for large-scale simulation, ignoring the strong coupling between different scales, and cannot accurately describe the mechanical behavior of materials.
[0007] In summary, the development of new materials still continues the traditional trial and error method, and faces difficulties such as high cost and long cycle. Generally speaking, the mechanical properties of materials are related to the composition of materials and the preparation method. Fundamentally, the material structure formed by different material components and different preparation methods is often very different. From the point of view of condensed matter physics, the molecular structure is controlled by the material composition and the preparation method, and determines the macroscopic mechanical properties of the material. The key to the current development of new materials is the lack of quantitative description of the molecular structure-macroscopic mechanical properties. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a multi-scale simulation method that can link the molecular scale and the macroscopic scale. SUMMARY

[0089] In affine deformation, the new coordinates (x ) are generated from the initial coordinates (x ) through the following translation, rotation and uniform deformation:
[0090] ;
[0091] ;
[0092] ;
[0093] Where a, b, c are the projection coefficients of the three axes x new On the old coordinate axis before deformation, similarly, d, e, f and h, i, j are the projection coefficients of y new And z new Corresponding, k, l, m are the three translation components of the coordinate center.
