The Definition Method and Optimization of Atomic Strain Tensors for Nuclear Power Engineering Materials

A common measure of deformation between atomic scale simulations and the continuum framework is provided and the strain tensors for multiscale simulations are defined in this paper. In order to compute the deformation gradient of any atom m, the weight function is proposed to eliminate the different...
