The means of pair correlation func-tion, mean square displacement and Honeycutt-Anderson bonded pair have been used to characterize the melting behavior of Cu at different heating rates. The simulation indicates that melting point of metal Cu is 1444 K during a continuous heating process, and the calculated diffusion constant at the melting point is 4.31×10-9 m2/s. These re-sults are better than those from the EAM method, showing that the FS potential model works well in some disor-dered systems.展开更多
