Abstract

We will present a general formalism for deriving boundary conditions for molecular dynamics simulations of crystalline solids in the context of atomistic/continuum coupling. These boundary conditions are modeled by generalized Langevin equations, derived from Mori-Zwanzig's formalism. Such boundary conditions are useful in suppressing phonon reflections, and maintaining the system temperature.
