Large-scale pseudopotential density functional theory calculations using orthogonalized enriched finite element basis
Avirup Sircar, Bikash Kanungo, Sambit Das +1
We present an efficient and scalable computational framework for pseudopotential Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) calculations using an enriched finite element (EFE) ba…

Intrinsic ductility enhancement in Mg alloys elucidated via large-scale ab-initio calculations
Sambit Das, Vikram Gavini
Magnesium is the lightest structural alloy, yet its practical use is limited by its low ductility. Recent studies suggest ductility enhancement in dilute Mg alloys may stem from fa…

Quasicrystal bulk and surface energies from density functional theory
Woohyeon Baek, Sambit Das, Shibo Tan +2
Are quasicrystals stable or metastable? Density functional theory (DFT) is often used to evaluate thermodynamic stability, but quasicrystals are long-range aperiodic and their ener…
