	abstract = {A molecular dynamics simulation with an embedded atom method (EAM) potential was performed to simulate metallic glass formation in a 32000-atom cubic supercell of a Cu64 Ag36 alloy. The obtained cooling curve and pair distribution function possess features that support the formation of a metallic glass. The reduced glass transition temperature Trg was calculated to be 0.53, which passes the Turnbull criterion for good metallic glass formers.},

	abstract = {The parallel speedup of component subroutines in a molecular dynamics simulation is measured after implementing MPI-based CPU parallelization and GPU acceleration. GPU acceleration was observed to yield an order of magnitude reduction in simulation times (13.9x{\textendash}23.6x relative to a serial run). Slightly less speedup is achieved by CPU parallelization (7.5x) over nine processors. Performance scaling is diminished by communication operations as the number of processes launched begin to exceed the number of available physical CPU cores.},

	abstract = {A copper-silver alloy (64\% Cu / 36\% Ag atomic ratio) is simulated by molecular dynamics. The alloy is subjected to rapid linear heating protocols from room temperature to 2100 K at several ramp rates of the order ~K/ps. Numerical evidence for a first-order melting transition at 1.19 x 10^3 K is observed. This elevated value is suggested to be the result of high pressures in the microscopic sample.},

It was found that the particle migrates to an equilibrium position at the center of the channel regardless of its initial position. A force coupling constant controls the strength of particle and fluid interactions. Requiring this constant to enforce Stokes{\textquoteright} drag on the particle resulted in a slightly faster migration than when using a constant that conserves the net kinetic energy.</div>},
