The embedded atom method based on density functional theory was developed as a new means for calculating ground state properties of realistic metal system by Murray S. Daw, Stephen M. Foiles and Michael I. Baskes. In the paper, we had corrected constitutive formulae and parameters on the nickel for the purpose of doing Embedded Atom Method analysis. And then we have computed the properties of the nickel on the fundamental scale of the atomic structure. In result, simulated ground state properties, such as the lattice constant, elastics constants and sublimation energy, show good agreement with Daw's simulation data and with experimental data.
