We present a novel method for simulating hydrodynamic phenomena. This particle-based
method combines features from molecular dynamics and lattice-gas automata. It is shown …

Dealing with all aspects of Monte Carlo simulation of complex physical systems encountered
in condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics, this book provides an introduction to …

The stochastic differential equations corresponding to the updating algorithm of Dissipative
Particle Dynamics (DPD), and the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation are derived. It is …

Starting from the stochastic differential equations corresponding to the updating algorithm of
dissipative particle dynamics we derive, with a standard technique of projection operators …

The pressure tensor (equivalent to the negative stress tensor) at both microscopic and
macroscopic levels is fundamental to many aspects of engineering and science, including …

The direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) scheme is used to study the gas flow under a
read/write head positioned nanometers above a moving disk drive platter (the slider bearing …

Atomistic methods, such as molecular dynamics and direct simulation Monte Carlo,
constitute a powerful and growing set of techniques for fluid-dynamics simulation. The more …

Microscopic simulations of plane Poiseuille flow for a dilute gas are presented. Although the
flow is laminar (Reynolds number≈ 10) and sub-sonic, the temperature and pressure …

Many-body simulations are very CPU-time consuming, making the problem of having
efficient algorithms specially relevant. In this paper we propose a strategy--for the simulation …

Because of rapid developments in computer speed and memory over the last 2 decades, the
field of molecular dynamics (MD) has experienced explosive growth. The molecular basis …
