A Heterogeneous Multiscale Model for Interfacial Thermal Transport

While nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are capable of producing accurate results for mesoscale models, the simulations for a few million molecules can take considerable duration even when run on multiple processors. However, the alternative continuum simulations, while faster, cannot account for any temperature discontinuities at interfaces, and as such, can be rather inaccurate. We present a solution to this by incorporating …
