Username: asutton Title: Prof. First Name: Adrian Last Name: Sutton Published Name: Adrian P. Sutton OpenKIM User ID: 5b477146-2938-4622-b609-e264203af669 Institution: Imperial College London Department: Physics Country: GB Website: Biography: Description of Work: Finnis-Sinclair type potentials for FCC metals and alloys. They were developed for computer simulations in which van der Waals type interactions between well separated atomic clusters are as important as the description of metallic bonding at short range. The potentials always favour f.c.c. and h.c.p. structures over the b.c.c. structure. They display convenient scaling properties for both length and energy, and a number of properties of the perfect crystal may be derived analytically.
