The simulation of the viscosity of liquid aluminum using the Tight-Binding potential
Shear viscosities of Aluminum are determined with nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using a Tight-Bonding potential. Viscosity of pure Aluminum melts is clculated using a 500 atom system at each temperature. And morever, viscosity is calculated with Andrade Equation. The MD results for Aluminum are in good agreement with the experiment and Andrade Equation's calculated results.
