Molecular dynamics simulations have been applied to investigate thermal properties of Ag and Au. Semi-empirical potentials, based on the embedded atom method (EAM) have been employed to calculate lattice parameter, energy per atom, mean square displacements and radial distribution function for the two metals. Thermal properties like specific heat, thermal coefficient of linear expansion and melting temperature are deduced from the calculated parameters. Results are found to compare well with the experimental results.
