Abstract

Computer simulations open new avenues in investigations of complex material systems and phenomena. The methodology, development and applications of molecular dynamics simulations are discussed and the wealth of microscopic information revealed via simulations of interphase-interfaces, liquid metals, metallic glasses and small aggregates are demonstrated.
