Molecular Dynamics Simulation on Physical Properties of Liquid Lead, Bismuth and Lead-bismuth Eutectic (LBE) [PDF]
Procedia Engineering, 2016 AbstractMolecular dynamics method was applied to simulate the physical properties of liquid metals: lead, bismuth and a binary alloy-- lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE). The embedded atom method (EAM), an empirical model rooted in density-functional theory, was used to represent the many-body interaction within the liquid metals.

Visualization of Solidification Process in Lead-bismuth Eutectic
Physics Procedia, 2017 Abstract Pulsed neutron transmission spectroscopy was applied to clarify a phase change phenomena of lead-bismuth eutectics (LBE). The melting and solidification behaviors of the LBE should be well understood to enhance the safety of an LBE-cooled accelerator driven system.
