Heterogeneous multiscale method for high energy-density matter: Connecting kinetic theory and molecular dynamics

We have developed a concurrent heterogeneous multiscale method (HMM) framework with a microscale molecular dynamics (MD) model and a macroscale kinetic Vlasov-BGK model. The kinetic model is formulated such that BGK collision times are the closure data obtained from MD. Using the H-theorem, we devel...
