A multi-scale simulation model is proposed for studying the thermal expansion caused by heavy ion beam irradiation. This model consists of plasma, molecular dynamics (MD), and a photoacoustic wave propagation analysis (or fluid or diffusion analysis) according to times and regions. Plasma simulations for producing a temperature increase and MD simulations for demonstrating the thermal expansion are performed.
