Liquid metals: early contributions and some recent developments
C. Regnaut, S. Amokrane
We illustrate in this contribution the progress in the theoretical study of liquid metals made in the last decades, starting from the example of liquid gallium and the early work i…
Structure of the glass-forming metallic liquids by ab-initio and classical molecular dynamics, a case study: quenching the Cu60Ti20Zr20 alloy
S. Amokrane, A. Ayadim, L. Levrel
We consider the question of the amorphization of metallic alloys by melt quenching, as predicted by molecular dynamics simulations with semi-empirical potentials. The parametrizati…
Accurate prediction of the glass transition in classical fluids: a pragmatic modification of the mode coupling theory
S. Amokrane, F. Tchangnwa Nya, J. M. Ndjaka
Many qualitative observations on the glass transition in classical fluids are well described by the mode coupling theory (MCT) but the extent of the non-ergodicity domain is often…
Mixture of neutral and dipolar-hard spheres confined in a slit pore: field-induced population inversion and demixing
Charles Brunet, Jean Guillaume Malherbe, Said Amokrane
We study by Monte Carlo simulation a binary mixture of neutral and dipolar hard-spheres with non-additive diameters. With a view to understanding the interplay between population i…
Controlling the composition of a confined fluid by an electric field
C. Brunet, J. G. Malherbe, S. Amokrane
Starting from a generic model of a pore/bulk mixture equilibrium, we propose a novel method for modulating the composition of the confined fluid without having to modify the bulk s…
Equilibrium route to colloidal gellation: mixtures of hard sphere-like colloids
Ph. Germain, S. Amokrane
The binodals and the non-ergodicity lines of a binary mixture of hard sphere-like particles with large size ratio are computed for studying the interplay between dynamic arrest and…
