The surface Cauchy–Born (SCB) method is a computational multi-scale method for the simulation of surface-dominated crystalline materials. We present an error analysis of the SCB method, focused on the role of surface relaxation. In a linearized 1D model we show that the error committed by the SCB method is 𝒪(1) in the mesh size; however, we are able to identify an alternative “approximation parameter” – the stiffness of the interaction potential – with respect to which the relative error...

The quasicontinuum method is a coarse-graining technique for
reducing the complexity of atomistic simulations in a static and
quasistatic setting. In this paper we aim to give a detailed a
priori and a posteriori error analysis for a quasicontinuum
method in one dimension. We consider atomistic models with
Lennard–Jones type long-range interactions and a QC formulation
which incorporates several important aspects of practical QC
methods. First, we prove the existence, the local uniqueness...
