  1. 11. Van der Waals Interactions in Density Functional Theory

    Author : Erika Hult; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; van der Waals interaction; exchange-correlation energy; adhesion; intermolecular forces; physisorption; density functional theory;

    Abstract : Density functional theory is a very important method for calculating ground-state properties for atoms, molecules and solids. Albeit exact in principle, its implementation requires an approximation for the so-called exchange-correlation energy. READ MORE

  2. 12. Density functional study of mono-vancacies in metals and austenitic steel alloys
