The parameters of interatomic potential for 10 fcc metals are presented in this paper. The potential is based on the embedded atom method [6]. Parameters are determined empirically by fitting to the equilibrium lattice constant, cohesion energy, vacancy formation energy, bulk modulus and three elastic constants. The proposed potentials are suitable for atomistic computer simulations of practical applications in areas of material science and engineering.
Keywords: interatomic potential, embedded atom method.
