Stochastic electronic structure theories, e.g., Quantum Monte Carlo methods, enable highly accurate total energy calculations which in principle can be used to construct highly accurate potential ...

Lack of rigorous reproducibility and validation are major hurdles for scientific development across many fields. Materials science in particular encompasses a variety of experimental and theoretical ...

We describe a method for modeling constant-potential charges in heteroatomic electrodes, keeping pace with the increasing complexity of electrode composition and nanostructure in electrochemical ...

Paper 2 The Hygrothermal Performance of Ventilated Stucco Walls Using Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulations and a Smart Vapor Retarder in the Pacific Northwest Sam Yuan Paper 6 Practical Methods for ...

We aim to improve upon the variational Monte Carlo (VMC) approach for excitations replacing the Jastrow factor by an auxiliary bosonic (AB) ground state and multiplying it by a fermionic component ...

Methane hydrates, a promising natural gas resource, are believed to reside throughout the globe in sea-floor sediments and permafrost. Lorie Langley, who is leading ORNL’s Gas Hydrate program for the ...

Research is focused on predicting and explaining the properties of materials using computer simulation. Over the last two decades, advances in simulation techniques coupled with increasing computer ...

Computationally characterizing magnetic properties of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials serves as an important first step of exploring possible applications. Using density-functional theory, we ...

The properties of LaMO3 (M: 3d transition metal) perovskite crystals are significantly dependent on point defects, whether introduced accidentally or intentionally. The most studied defects in ...
