Abstract
A method for calculating an interaction potential between filler particles in a polymeric material by using a computer is disclosed. The method comprises: arranging filler models and polymer models in a virtual space; calculating a free energy in the virtual space based on a mean field theory; obtaining parameters of the Lennard-Jones potential by approximating the free energy to the Lennard-Jones potential.
