Development of Multi-level Tribology Simulator based on Ultra-accelerated Quantum Chemical Molecular Dynamics
Description: The multi-level tribology simulator was developed to analyze the tribology phenomenon containing microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic levels based on the quantum theory. This was realized for the first time by development of an ultra-accelerated quantum chemical molecular dynamics method, an automation program for precision determinations of interparticle interaction potentials, and so on. This simulator was applied to the tribochemical reaction of engine oil additives and validated by comparison with experimental results.
