molecular dynamics

Ph.D and postdoctoral associate positions are available at Rice University in the broad area of atomistic, molecular and multiscale modeling of cement-based materials. The projects include carrying out bottom-up atomistic and microtexture predictive simulations. Computational techniques will be integrated to approaches from statistical mechanics and physical chemistry to provide quantitative predictions of properties of cementitious materials across different time- andlength-scales. The research will be carried out at Rice University’s Laboratory for Multiscale
Materials Modeling.

I am seeking candidates in the field of Composites Modelling, interested in applying for any of the following schemes, which have closing dates in August 2011:

Hi,

I am writing to inform you about a new master in Computational Materials Science offered at TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany. It is an international master program, and all the lectures will be given in English.

To enhance multidisciplinary research, the program is open to students from different background, mechanical engineering, solid state physics and materials science.

We are looking for an intern to join us this summer at IBM TJ Watson Research Center. You can find the job description at the link below. Please send your resume to apply for it there. More specifically, a background in molecular dynamics is required, and an experience of running open source MD code on supercomputer is preferred. The job will be filled quickly, and you are advised to apply as soon as possible.

The Irish Research Council (http://www.ircset.ie/tabid/64/default.aspx) has a funding scheme for postdoctoral researchers. I am seeking someone to submit an application to IRCSET to obtain funding to work within my group, in Modelling of CNT-based nanocomposites. The chances of success are high for candidates with a good research record. The deadline for applications is December 8th.

A postdoctoral position is available at the Mechanical Engineering Department of the University of Connecticut in the area of coarse-grain molecular dynamics simulation of cellular membranes and filaments. Extensive experience in molecular dynamics simulation of soft materials and parallel coding is required. Experience in the use of force fields and LAMMPS is highly desirable.

Abstract

The Graduate School MUSIC (Multiscale Methods forInterfaceCoupling) invites to its first Summer School onMultiscale and Multiphysics Modelling of Interfacesat Leibniz Universitaet Hannover, Germany, from 15 to 17 September 2010.

One of the most significant factors in molecular dynamic simulatin is to choose the proper potential. Recently, I did some searching jobs on Vanadium (V) potential and finally decided which potential I am going to use. Here is a simple summary:

Dear All,

I am looking for a freeware molecular dynamics software working for Windows operative systems.

I have tried LAMMPS, but it seems to me that it works only under UNIX.

Thank you very much in advance for any information.

Best wishes, Marco Paggi

We have combined the EAM and the SW and the TF potentials in one functional form. This functional form allows the modeling of metal covalent systems (M-Si,Ge,C,SiC) very efficiently allowing the study of large systems. The potential iscalled as the "Angular-dependent Embedded Atom Method".
