The Schrödinger Equation
Chapitre d'ouvrage scientifique
Résumé
The finest scale in the matter description consists of the one of quantum mechanics. In this chapter we revisit some valuable concepts of quantum mechanics, and more particularly the Schrödinger equation governing the time evolution of the so-called wavefunction, from which expectations can be easily derived. Another important output is the interatomic potentials responsible of the chemical bonds determining the structure and properties of materials. Even if the quantum framework is able to define the big picture, an important difficulty remains: the Schrödinger equation is defined in a highly multidimensional space and its solution is in most cases unattainable.

Thus, in industrial applications a macroscopic approach is suitable, whereas the macroscopic ...

Article dans une revue avec comité de lecturePEREZ, Marta; SCHEUER, Adrien; AMMAR, Amine; CHINESTA, Francisco; KEUNINGS, Roland; ABISSET-CHAVANNE, Emmanuelle (Springer Verlag, 2019)When addressing the flow of concentrated suspensions composed of rods, dense clusters are observed. Thus, the adequate modelling and simulation of such a flow requires addressing the kinematics of these dense clusters and ...
