Virial stress is a measure of mechanical stress on an atomic scale. It is given by : where * and are atoms in the domain, * is the volume of the domain, * is the mass of atom ''k'', * is the ''i''th component of the velocity of atom ''k'', * is the ''j''th component of the average velocity of atoms in the volume, * is the ''i''th component of the position of atom ''k'', and * is the ''i''th component of the force applied on atom by atom . At zero kelvin, all velocities are zero so we have :. This can be thought of as follows. The τ11 component of stress is the force in the ''x''1-direction divided by the area of a plane perpendicular to that direction. Consider two adjacent volumes separated by such a plane. The 11-component of stress on that interface is the sum of all pairwise forces between atoms on the two sides. ==See also== * Virial theorem 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Virial stress」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
