摘要
An effective multiscale simulation which concurrently couples the quantum-mechanical and molecular-mechanical calculations based on the position continuity of atoms is presented.By an iterative procedure,the structure of the dislocation core in face-centered cubic metal is obtained by first-principles calculation and the long-range stress is released by molecular dynamics relaxation.Compared to earlier multiscale methods,the present work couples the long-range strain to the local displacements of the dislocation core in a simpler way with the same accuracy.
