Nanotribology of coating on silicon using multiscale atomic-continuum modelling

纳米摩擦学在纳米材料、纳米技术和信息技术的发展中起着至关重要的作用。目前的项目旨在预测硅上金刚石涂层的纳米摩擦学所涉及的机制。此外，该项目将使用一种结合分子动力学、离散元方法和有限元分析的创新模型，将原子尺度上的摩擦学机理与连续介质尺度上的机理相结合。这将提供对摩擦学的整体理解。

Nanotribology plays a vital role in the development of nanomaterials, nanotechnology and information technology. The current project aims to predict the mechanisms involved in the nanotribology of diamond coating on silicon. In addition, the project will integrate the tribological mechanisms involved on the atomic scale with mechanisms on the continuum scale using an innovative model combining molecular dynamics, discrete elements method and finite elements analysis. This will provide a holistic understanding of tribology.
