Finnis, Mike,

Interatomic forces in condensed matter [electronic resource] / Mike Finnis. - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2003. - 1 online resource (xv, 286 pages) : illustrations. - Oxford series on materials modelling ; 1 . - Oxford series on materials modelling ; 1. .

Includes bibliographical references (pages [275]-281) and index.

There is a continuing growth of interest in the computer simulation of materials at the atomic scale, using a variety of academic and commercial computer programs. Such programs work with very diverse models of the inter-atomic forces. This book explains how such models are constructed and their scientific basis.
