What Does SSCAD Stand For?

SSCAD stands for Spherical Self Consistent Atomic Deformation

SSCAD, or Spherical Self Consistent Atomic Deformation, is a theoretical framework used in materials science and condensed matter physics to model the deformation of atomic structures under various external influences. This approach emphasizes a self-consistent treatment of atomic interactions, allowing for accurate predictions of material behavior by considering spherical symmetry in the deformation process. SSCAD is particularly useful for studying phase transitions, elastic properties, and stability of materials at the atomic level.
