Lindemann's melting criterion for cubic metals is examined using Krebs's model for the lattice dynamics of metals by computing the ratio, xm, of the mean square displacement of thermal vibrations and the square of interatomic spacing at the melting temperature for a number of cubic metals belonging to different groups of the periodic table. This ratio has nearly the same value for elements of one particular group, but exhibits wide variation from one group to another. It is concluded that Lindemann's melting law is inadequate.

A modified angular force model for the lattice dynamics of metals is used to test Lindemann's melting criterion by computing the ratio Ym of the mean square amplitude of thermal vibrations to the square of the interatomic spacing at the melting point for a number of cubic metals belonging to different groups in the periodic table.

Using discrete wavelets, a novel technique is developed to estimate turbulent diffusion coefficients and power exponents from single Lagrangian particle trajectories. The technique differs from the classical approach (Davis (1991)’s technique) because averaging over a statistical ensemble of the mean square displacement (<X2>) is replaced by averaging along a single Lagrangian trajectory X(t) = {X(t), Y(t)}. Metzler et al. (2014) have demonstrated that for an ergodic (for example, normal diffusion) flow, the mean square displacement is <X2> = limT→∞τX2(T,s), where τX2 (T, s) = 1/(T − s) ∫0T−s(X(t+Δt) − X(t))2 dt, T and s are observational and lag times but for weak non-ergodic (such as super-diffusion and sub-diffusion) flows <X2> = limT→∞≪τX2(T,s)≫, where ≪…≫ is some additional averaging. Numerical calculations for surface drifters in the Black Sea and isobaric RAFOS floats deployed at mid depths in the California Current system demonstrated that the reconstructed diffusion coefficients were smaller than those calculated by Davis (1991)’s technique. This difference is caused by the choice of the Lagrangian mean. The technique proposed here is applied to the analysis of Lagrangian motions in the Black Sea (horizontal diffusion coefficients varied from 105 to 106 cm2/s) and for the sub-diffusion of two RAFOS floats in the California Current system where power exponents varied from 0.65 to 0.72. RAFOS float motions were found to be strongly non-ergodic and non-Gaussian.

MD simulation has been performed to learn the microscopic mechanism of diffusion of ions in the Li2SiO3 system. The motion of lithium ions can be explained by the trapping model, where lithium is trapped in the polyhedron and moves with fluctuation of the coordination number. The mean square displacement of lithium was found to correlate well with the net changes in coordination number.

The effect of premelting is of particular interest in connection with the theory of melting. In this paper, we discuss the structural and dynamical properties of the surfaces of semi-infinite crystals as well as of nano-clusters, which show the effect of premelting. The investigations are based on molecular-dynamics calculations: different models are used for the systematic study of the effect of premelting. In particular, the behaviour of the following functions have been studied: pair correlation function, generalized phonon density of states, and the mean-square displacement as a function of time. The calculations have been done for krypton since for this substance a reliable interaction potential is available.

We report, in this paper, a recent study on the dynamical mechanism of Brownian particles diffusing in the fractional damping environment, where several important quantities such as the mean square displacement (MSD) and mean square velocity are calculated for dynamical analysis. A particular type of backward motion is found in the diffusion process. The reason of it is analyzed intrinsically by comparing with the diffusion in various dissipative environments. Results show that the diffusion in the fractional damping environment obeys the Langevin dynamics which is quite different form what is expected.

The transient mean-square displacement, slope, and relative motion of a viscously damped shear beam subjected to correlated random boundary excitation is presented. The effects of various system parameters including the spectral characteristics of the excitation, the delay time between the beam support motion, and the beam damping have been investigated. Marked amplifications in the mean-square response are shown to occur for certain dimensionless time delays.

In this work, a generalization of continuous time random walk is considered, where the waiting times among the subsequent jumps are power-law correlated with kernel function M(t)=tρ(ρ>-1). In a continuum limit, the correlated continuous time random walk converges in distribution a subordinated process. The mean square displacement of the proposed process is computed, which is of the form 〈x2(t)〉∝tH=t1/(1+ρ+1/α). The anomy exponent H varies from α to α/(1+α) when -1<ρ<0 and from α/(1+α) to 0 when ρ>0. The generalized diffusion equation of the process is also derived, which has a unified form for the above two cases.

AbstractIn this paper, we have investigated the Langevin and Brownian equations on fractal time sets using Fα-calculus and shown that the mean square displacement is not varied linearly with time. We have also generalized the classical method of deriving the Fokker–Planck equation in order to obtain the Fokker–Planck equation on fractal time sets.
