It is demonstrated that classical force fields validated through the density functional theory (DFT) calculations of small titanium and nickel clusters can be applied for the description of thermo-mechanical properties of corresponding materials. This has been achieved by means of full-atom molecular dynamics simulations of nanoindentation of amorphous and nanostructured Ti and Ni-Ti materials. The theoretical analysis performed and comparison with experimental data demonstrate that the utilized classical force fields for Ti-Ti, Ni-Ni and Ni-Ti interactions describe reasonably well hardness and the Young's modulus of these materials. This observation is of the general nature and can be utilized for similar numerical exploration of thermo-mechanical properties of a broad range of materials.
