Convergence Analysis of the Wolf Method for Coulombic Interactions

Submitted by arash_yavari on

A rigorous proof for convergence of the Wolf method for calculating electrostatic energy of a periodic lattice is presented. In particular, we show that for an arbitrary lattice of unit cells, the lattice sum obtained via Wolf method converges to the one obtained via Ewald method.

Summer Internship.

Submitted by pseureka on

I am 3rd year mechanical student of Birla Insttitute of Technology,Mesra, Ranchi, India. I have worked on thin films about six months and developed a thin film metal oxide varistor and patent is under progress. I have also worked on Green building material at IIT Bombay, India. In this project we have tried to provide strength to Gypsum board by adding CNT. I am looking for any foreign interns in these summer. Kindly suggest me how can I get that.
