Lattice model

The lattice model is a simplified way to study how particles, like molecules or atoms, arrange themselves in a material. Imagine a grid or network of points (like a 3D chessboard) where each point can be occupied by a particle. This model helps scientists understand how particles interact, move, or organize under different conditions, such as temperature or pressure. It's a useful tool in physics and chemistry because it reduces complex systems into manageable, discrete positions, making calculations and predictions about material behaviors more tractable.
