Abstract

Potential functions used in molecular dynamics simulations for metals are characterized through a calculation of the third-order elastic constants, the Gruneisen parameters, and the molecular dynamics simulation of point defects. The Lennard-Jones potential and the embedded atom method potentials for noble metals (Cu, Ag, Au) are characterized by using a common program code.
