This book contains proceedings of an international symposium on
Atomistic th Simulation of Materials: Beyond Pair Potentials which
was held in Chicago from the 25 th to 30 of September 1988, in
conjunction with the ASM World Materials Congress. This symposium
was financially supported by the Energy Conversion and Utilization
Technology Program of the U. S Department of Energy and by the Air
Force Office of Scientific Research. A total of fifty four talks
were presented of which twenty one were invited. Atomistic
simulations are now common in materials research. Such simulations
are currently used to determine the structural and thermodynamic
properties of crystalline solids, glasses and liquids. They are of
particular importance in studies of crystal defects, interfaces and
surfaces since their structures and behavior playa dominant role in
most materials properties. The utility of atomistic simulations
lies in their ability to provide information on those length scales
where continuum theory breaks down and instead complex many body
problems have to be solved to understand atomic level structures
and processes.
