anharmonic thermodynamic properties of cubic CaSiO perovskite
Zhen Zhang, Renata M. Wentzcovitch
We present an study of the thermodynamic properties of cubic CaSiO perovskite (CaPv) over the pressure and temperature range of the Earth's lower mantle. W…
Roughness and scaling properties of oxide glass surfaces at the nanoscale
Zhen Zhang, Simona Ispas, Walter Kob
Using atomistic computer simulations we determine the roughness and topographical features of melt-formed (MS) and fracture surfaces (FS) of oxide glasses. We find that the topogra…
Revealing the three-dimensional structure of liquids using four-point correlation functions
Zhen Zhang, Walter Kob
Disordered systems like liquids, gels, glasses, or granular materials are not only ubiquitous in daily life and in industrial applications but they are also crucial for the mechani…
Structure and vibrational properties of sodium silicate glass surfaces
Zhen Zhang, Simona Ispas, Walter Kob
Using molecular dynamics simulations we investigate the dependence of the structural and vibrational properties of the surfaces of sodo-silicate glasses on the sodium content as we…
Thermal Conductivity of CaSiO Perovskite at Lower Mantle Conditions
Zhen Zhang, Dong-Bo Zhang, Kotaro Onga +4
Thermal conductivity () of mantle minerals is a fundamental property in geodynamic modeling. It controls the style of mantle convection and the time scale of the mantle and core…
