Download or read book Computer Simulation in Chemical Physics written by M. P. Allen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1993 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proceedings of a NATO ASI held near Alghero, Italy in September 1992. The school focused on recent progress in applying the methods of computer simulation to problems in chemical physics. The 14 lectures address topics including the molecular dynamics method, advanced Monte Carlo techniques, thermodynamic constraints, computer simulations in the Gibbs ensemble, effective pair potentials and beyond, first principles molecular dynamics, computer simulation methods for nonadiabatic dynamics in condensed systems, long length- scale aspects of self organization phenomena, computer simulation of polymers, computer simulation of surfactants, parallel computing and molecular dynamics simulations, and scientific visualization--a user view.
