How does charge on working electrode changes with rising potential?

During performing CV of a GCE or modified GCE, we rise the potential in the first half of the cycle and reduce it in reverse half. During the first half, what is the nature of charge on GCE or...

Why am I getting 'Infinity' and 'NaN' in my mixed-mode energy release values?

Hi everyone, I am currently running a mixed-mode simulation of a DCB using a user-defined cohesive zone model (UEL), however, the results I am getting don't make sense. I used the same UEL for...

Why does the sum of reaction forces not match the force component of a Free Body Cut in Abaqus?

I am using Abaqus to simulate a plate with in-plane loading. The boundary conditions allow the right edge to move up and down, the displacements on the left edge are fixed. There is no rotation...

I think you can do that using the HYBRID command, like

pair_style hybrid airebo/zbl

It sure combines the two, but I'm not sure if it does so using the Fermit distribution.

Thank you for your answer. The hybrid command just superposes hybrid potentials in an additive way instead of connecting them using a Fermi function or spline function.

I wonder if anyone has some experience in connecting airebo and zbl potentials?
