Graph-based linear scaling electronic structure theory

TL;DR: This work shows how graph theory can be combined with quantum theory to calculate the electronic structure of large complex systems, and addresses substantial shortcomings of linear scaling electronic structure theory with respect to quantum-based molecular dynamics simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Graph-based linear scaling electronic structure theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show how graph theory can be combined with quantum theory to calculate the electronic structure of large complex systems, which is general and applicable to a broad range of electronic structure methods and materials including challenging systems such as biomolecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relaxation in shape-memory alloys—Part II. Thermo-mechanical model and proposed experiments

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a phenomenological, but predictive, model of the mechanical behavior of shape-memory alloys and showed that this model reproduces the experimental observations, and they extended this model to include the effects of temperature and the austenite-martensite transformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental study of internal fields and movement of single ferroelectric domain walls

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors made a direct and submicron scale measurement of the strain, internal electric field of single 180° domain walls in ferroelectric LiTaO 3 using a collection mode Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscope.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of elastic compatibility in martensitic texture evolution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) method to analyze the time evolution of strain fields in a model for materials with martensitic phase transformations.
