AtomTouch|教育線上App不用買

AtomTouch is a molecular simulation app, created through a partnership between UW MRSEC and Field Day Lab, that allows learners to explore principles of thermodynamics and molecular dynamics in an tactile, exploratory way.

Simulation Features

Lennard Jones and Buckingham Simulation Engine

Create molecules from Cu, Au and Pt

Change thermodynamics properties

Control time

Experiment with the potential energy, finding stable geometries

Watch the process of melting and vaporizing

The Need

Stick and ball models of chemistry leave much to be desired. They easily reinforce misconceptions and they don’t provide learners with a sense of the dynamic movement and forces that are operating at the molecular scale.

Project Description

Working with molecular dynamics simulation expert Dane Morgan, UW MRSEC education director Ann Lynn Gillian-Daniel and with the support of a MRSEC seed grant, MLI developed interactive 3-D simulation for mobile devices. The simulation was developed to help students understand the structures and attributes of particles at the molecular level, providing real-time feedback and responding to student’s actions.
