Monte Carlo (MC) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation techniques are used to investigate heterogeneous nucleation and crystal growth in one-component and binary metallic systems. Phase-field as well as phase-field crystal approaches, density functional theory (DFT) and classical nucleation theory shall be tested by studying various properties of solid-liquid interfaces, growth kinetics, transport properties of the melt, nucleation barriers and nucleation rates. MD simulation of crystalline nuclei on different structured substrates allows to elucidate the structure of the nuclei and, in particular for binary systems, the role of defects during growth. The starting configurations for the latter runs are provided by MC simulations in conjunction with umbrella sampling; these MC simulations are also used to determine nucleation barriers and to study the structure of critical nuclei.

采用蒙特卡罗（MC）和分子动力学（MD）模拟技术研究了单组分和二元金属体系中的异质形核和晶体生长。应通过研究固-液界面的各种性质、生长动力学、熔体的传输性质、成核障碍和成核速率来检验相场和相场晶体方法、密度泛函理论（DFT）和经典成核理论。不同结构的衬底上的结晶核的MD模拟允许阐明的核的结构，特别是对于二元系统，在生长过程中的缺陷的作用。后者运行的起始配置提供了MC模拟结合伞采样，这些MC模拟也被用来确定成核障碍和研究临界核的结构。
