Atomistic calculations of rate of long-timescale microstructural evolution

[摘要] (cont.) That different investigation approaches are needed is a direct result of the variation in the complexity of the microstructures, the number and predictability of atomic transition mechanisms, and the depth of existing experimental knowledge. These four studies therefore represent distinct, but complementary, challenges within the common theme of rate calculation. We conclude the thesis with an appraisal of the types of challenges encountered and with an evaluation of the approaches we took to the problems.
