Several types of computer modeling are employed in nanotechnology, each with its unique advantages and applications:
Molecular Dynamics (MD): Simulates the physical movements of atoms and molecules over time to study the dynamic evolution of the system. Density Functional Theory (DFT): Uses quantum mechanical modeling to investigate the electronic structure of systems. Monte Carlo Simulations: Utilizes statistical sampling techniques to model the behavior of systems with many coupled degrees of freedom. Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Breaks down complex structures into smaller parts to study stress, strain, and other physical phenomena.
