The value of N can range from several hundred to several billions. To handle the energetics of these structures computationally, the most efficient way is to express the total interaction energies in these systems in terms of interatomic potentials that are functions of the atomic coordinates. The reason is that, even with the high-performing computing platforms and sophisticated simulation techniques available today, the existing quantum mechanical-based, or ab initio, strategies can handle nanoscale systems composed of, at most, a few hundred atoms. Interatomic potential energy functions will, therefore, be indispensable in modeling and simulation studies for a long time to come. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland. date: 2016 publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85126700113&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-319-03197-2_2&partnerID=40&md5=b2f0d8cb168486126a59f7dc0ee9fdca id_number: 10.1007/978-3-319-03197-2₂ full_text_status: none publication: Engineering Materials pagerange: 15-25 refereed: TRUE issn: 16121317 citation: Awang, M. and Mohammadpour, E. and Muhammad, I.D.
