Download or read book Numerical Simulation in Molecular Dynamics written by Michael Griebel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-16 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details the necessary numerical methods, the theoretical background and foundations and the techniques involved in creating computer particle models, including linked-cell method, SPME-method, tree codes, amd multipol technique. It illustrates modeling, discretization, algorithms and their parallel implementation with MPI on computer systems with distributed memory. The text offers step-by-step explanations of numerical simulation, providing illustrative code examples. With the description of the algorithms and the presentation of the results of various simulations from fields such as material science, nanotechnology, biochemistry and astrophysics, the reader of this book will learn how to write programs capable of running successful experiments for molecular dynamics.
