Formulation and optimization of the energy-based blended quasicontinuum method [PDF]
, 2013 We formulate an energy-based atomistic-to-continuum coupling method based on blending the quasicontinuum method for the simulation of crystal defects. We utilize theoretical results from Van Koten and Luskin [32] and Ortner and Van Koten [24] to derive ...
