Dynamically Disordered Solid Materials Described with Theoretical Models

Solid materials are actually not quite as solid as they seem. Generally, each atom usually vibrates around a specific position in the material. Most theoretical models that aim to define solid materials are based on the notion that the atoms keep their positions and do not travel great distances from them.
