Computational simulation of vibrationally resolved spectra for spin‐forbidden transitions

Abstract In this computational study, we illustrate a method for computing phosphorescence and circularly polarized phosphorescence spectra of molecular systems, which takes into account vibronic effects including both Franck‐Condon and Herzberg‐Teller contributions. The singlet and triplet states involved in the phosphorescent emission are described within the harmonic approximation, and the method fully takes mode‐mixing effects into account when evaluating Franck‐Condon integrals. Spin‐orbit couplings, which are responsible for these otherwise forbidden phenomena, are accounted for by means of a relativistic two‐component time‐dependent density functional theory method. The model is applied to two types of chiral systems: camphorquinone, a rigid organic system that allows for an extensive benchmark, and some members of a class of iridium complexes. The merits and shortcomings of the methods are discussed, and some perspectives for future developments are offered.

Atomistic Simulation of Interstitial Dislocation Loop Evolution under Applied Stresses in BCC Iron

Evolution of an interstitial 1/2⟨111⟩ dislocation loop under tensile, shear, and torsion stresses is studied with molecular statics method. Under a tensile stress, the dependence of ultimate tensile strength on size of loop is calculated. The formation of small shear loops around the initial prismatic loop is confirmed as an intermediate state to form the final dislocation network. Under a shear stress, the rotation of a loop is observed not only by a change of the habit plane but also through a transformation between a shear and a prismatic loop. Under torsion, a perfect BCC crystal may undergo a BCC to FCC or BCC to HCP transformation. The present work indicates that a 1/2⟨111⟩ loop can delay these transformations, resulting in the formation of micro-crack on the surface.

MIRAGE: A Framework for Data-Driven Collaborative High-Resolution Simulation

Information about how human populations shift in response to various stimuli is limited because no single model is capable of addressing these stimuli simultaneously, and integration of the best existing models has been challenging because of the vast disparity among constituent model purposes, architectures, scales, and execution environments. To demonstrate a potential model coupling for approaching this problem, three major model components are integrated into a fully coupled system that executes a worldwide infection-infected routine where a human population requires a food source for sustenance and an infected population can spread an infection when it is in contact with the remaining healthy population. To enable high-resolution data-driven model federation and an ability to capture dynamics and behaviors of billions of humans, a high-performance computing agent-based framework has been created and is demonstrated in this chapter.
