Predicting macroscopic thermal expansion of metastable liquid metals with only one thousand atoms

Results of thermal expansion prediction from atomic scale for metastable liquid metals are reported herein. Three pure liquid metals Ni, Fe, and Cu together with ternary Ni60Fe20Cu20 alloy are used as models. The pair distribution functions were em- ployed to monitor the atomic structure. This indic...
