A cluster algorithm for Monte Carlo simulation at constant pressure.
We propose an efficient algorithm to sample the volume in Monte Carlo simulations in the isobaric-isothermal ensemble. The method is designed to be applied in the simulation of hard-core models at high density. The algorithm is based in the generation of clusters of particles. At the volume change step, the distances between pairs of particles belonging to the same cluster do not change. This i...
متن کاملAlgorithm for constant-pressure Monte Carlo simulation of crystalline solids.
We describe an alternative method for performing isothermal-isobaric Monte Carlo simulations of crystalline solids. This method uses thermodynamics to estimate appropriate scaling of coordinates relative to their nominal lattice sites in order to increase the probability of acceptance of volume changes. We test this coordinate scaling with three systems: hard spheres, Lennard-Jones spheres, and...
متن کاملContinuum Monte Carlo Simulation at Constant Pressure of Stiff Chain Molecules at Surfaces
Continuum Monte-Carlo simulations at constant pressure are performed on short chain molecules at surfaces. The rodlike chains, consisting of seven effective monomers, are attached at one end to a flat twodimensional substrate. It is found that the model exhibits phases similar to the liquid condensed and liquid expanded phases of Langmuir monolayers. The model is investigated here for a wide ra...
متن کاملGeometric cluster Monte Carlo simulation
We discuss a cluster Monte Carlo algorithm for lattice models, based on geometric transformations. We prove detailed balance when the transformation is self-inverse, and a symmetry of the Hamiltonian. This algorithm opens new possibilities, in particular for the efficient simulation of critical model systems, where the Metropolis method suffers from critical slowing down. We illustrate the gene...
متن کاملA New Approach for Monte Carlo Simulation of RAFT Polymerization
In this work, based on experimental observations and exact theoretical predictions, the kinetic scheme of RAFT polymerization is extended to a wider range of reactions such as irreversible intermediate radical terminations and reversible transfer reactions. The reactions which have been labeled as kinetic scheme are the more probable existing reactions as the theoretical point of view. The ...
