Molecular Simulation of Fluids

Hardbound. Molecular simulation is being increasingly used to study a widening range of both molecular systems and fluid phenomena. Today, the goal of many simulators is to study complicated molecules such as proteins, whereas attention was formerly confined almost exclusively to simple atoms and molecules. Similarly, the simulation of phase equilibria is nowadays quite common. The impetus for the increasing use of molecular simulation can be attributed to many factors such as improvements in theory, algorithms, and computer hardware. These novel developments have generated enormous growth in the simulation literature.The aim of this book is to examine some of the important aspects of recent progress in the use of molecular simulation for investigating fluids. It encompasses both Monte Carlo and molecular dynamic techniques providing details of theory, algorithms and implementation. Details of new algorithms are described in pseudo code and the latest
