Molecular dynamics simulation of the overheated solid and liquid Al–0.2 wt.% Ti alloys is carried out within the time interval of 2$\cdot$10$^{-9}$ s for temperatures from 950 to 1673 K. Density, enthalpy, potential and total energies of the system, radial distribution function, volume and number of faces of the Voronoi polyhedra, coordination numbers, and self-diffusion coefficients of the components are calculated. Our data are compared with literature ones. As shown, the atomic clusters with central Ti atom are formed in the melt. These clusters become less stable with temperature rising.

Key words: modelling, molecular dynamics, Al–Ti melt, structure of liquid.
