Abstract

A new embedded atom potential has been proposed in this paper. The potential is expressed by simple functions and is applicable to the molecular dynamics simulations of large atomic systems. The potential parameters are determined from the experimental data using the cohesive energy, Born stability, elastic constants, C 11 C 12 and C 44, the formation energy of a vacancy and the stacking fault energy. The potential functions for copper, silver and gold are presented.
