Abstract

SUMMARYA component mode synthesis‐based multiscale approach is developed for dynamic analysis of nanostructures. The multiscale approach decomposes a nanostructure into atomistic and continuum regions and employs vibrational modes to connect the regions of different scales, enabling a reflectionless atomistic‐to‐continuum coupling. Dynamic response of the coupled atomistic and continuum regions is computed concurrently using a common time scale. Numerical results indicate that the multiscale approach has significant condensation and scaling advantages, and it is well suited for modeling and simulation of large and complex systems.
