Introduction -- How to run DISCUS -- Making computer crystals -- Simulating experimental data -- Correlations and creating short-range order -- Creating modulations -- Creating structures with stacking faults -- Creating domain structures -- Creating nanoparticles -- Analyzing disordered structures -- Refining disordered structures
Summary
Understanding the atomic structure of complex and time disordered materials relies upon computer simulations of these structures. This cook book provides a unique mixture of simulation know-how and hands on examples. All related files and the program DISCUS are included on a CDROM with the book
