{wiki=Embedded_atom_model}
The Embedded Atom Model (EAM) is a computational model used to describe the interatomic interactions in metals and alloys. It is particularly effective for simulating the properties of metallic systems, including their structure, mechanical behavior, and thermodynamics. \#\#\# Key Features of the Embedded Atom Model: 1. **Embedding Function**: The EAM is based on the idea that the energy of an atom is not only determined by its nearest neighbors but also by how those neighbors are arranged.
