A closed-form energy expression ensuring consistency in the atomistic-continuum coupling: A one-dimensional atomic chain study

It is well known that coupling atomistic and continuum domains introduces inconsistencies near the interface. These inconsistencies manifest as nonphysical forces, known as “ghost forces,” which can lead to significant errors in the solution. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to achieve a c...
