"Modelling of Void Collapse with Molecular Dynamics in Pure Sn";
Proceedings, 56 (2020), 1, 29; 1 - 3.



English abstract:
This work simulates the collapse of a spherical void in pure Sn during melting using
molecular dynamics (MD). Simulations were performed for two temperatures with a modified
embedded atom method (MEAM) potential, which was reported to be in good agreement with
respect to melting point and elastic constants. Solutions of the Rayleigh-Plesset (RP) equation are
used for comparison under the assumption of macroscopic surface tension and liquid viscosity.
Despite a qualitative correlation, longer collapse times were observed in MD simulations, which
arose from partial solid structures and the incubation time for melting.
