A Unified Interpretation of Stress in Molecular Systems (2010, background): “ended to one. For example, the pair potential and the embedded-atom method (EAM) potential [12] are continuously differentiable functions on RN(N−1)/2, while the Stillinger-Weber [57] and the Tersoff [60] potentials can be easily extended to RN(N−1)/2 by expressing the angles appearing in them as a ”
