Simulation of shock-induced melting of Ni using molecular dynamics coupled to a two-temperature model
Using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations we study shock-induced melting in Ni with an embedded atom method (EAM). Dynamic melting is probed by the pair correlation function, and we find a melting lattice temperature of Tmelt =6400±300 K for a melting pressure of Pmelt =275±10 GPa. Wh...
