Molecular dynamics simulations for nanometer scale polyethylene (PE) particles generated with up to 12000 atoms are presented to gain insight into some thermodynamic properties of ultra fine polymer powders. By computing molecular volume and total energy as a function of temperature, we obtained mel

## Abstract We have explored the impact of a number of basic simulation parameters on the results of a recently developed hybrid molecular dynamics‐quantum mechanics (MD‐QM) method (Mercer et al., J Phys Chem B 1999, 103, 7720). The method utilizes MD simulations to explore the ground‐state configu
## Abstract **Summary:** Nanometer scale morphological order of macroscopically amorphous polyesters, obtained from the melt at moderate cooling rates, was observed in the past. The effect of such order on mechanical properties of a PET/PEN blend, evaluated by AFM nanoindentations, is reported in t
## Abstract The Cu^II^ hydration shell structure has been studied by means of classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations including three‐body corrections and hybrid quantum‐mechanical/molecular‐mechanical (QM/MM) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at the Hartree–Fock level. The copper(II) ion i
A numerical rxlculation based on the molecular dynamics method is described and the dynamical chaacteristics oi the interracial layer between the liquid and solid phases are studied. Special initial and boundary conditions have been used. The chmxcterirtic vibrations and the anisotropy
