Prediction of glass formability from liquid properties
R. Dai, R. Ashcraft, A. K. Gangopadhyay +1
Glass formation is one of the most interesting phenomena in the condensed matter field. Considerable effort has gone into understanding and predicting the glass formability. Howeve…
Estimates of bond length and thermal expansion coefficients from x-ray scattering experimental data using reverse Monte Carlo simulations
R. Ashcraft, K. F. Kelton
The previously discussed anomalous behavior (i.e. negative) of the thermal expansion coefficient obtained from the pair correlation function is examined in the context of the neare…
Assessing the Reliability of Minimally Constrained Reverse Monte Carlo Simulations for Model Metallic Liquids
R. Ashcraft, K. F. Kelton
Molecular dynamics simulations using semi-empirical potentials are examined for three liquids to check the reliability of reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) simulations to reproduce atomic…
Experimental measurements of the temperature-dependent Van Hove function in a liquid
R. Ashcraft, Z. Wang, D. L. Abernathy +3
Even though the viscosity is one of the most fundamental properties of liquids, the connection with the atomic structure of the liquid has proven elusive. By combining inelastic ne…
