Book Description

ISBN-10: 3540443177 | ISBN-13: 978-3540443179 | Publication Date: February 12, 2003 | Edition: 1
The behaviour of many complex materials extends over time- and lengthscales well beyond those that can normally be described using standard molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo simulation techniques. As progress is coming more through refined simulation methods than from increased computer power, this volume is intended as both an introduction and a review of all relevant modern methods that will shape molecular simulation in the forthcoming decade. Written as a set of tutorial reviews, the book will be of use to specialists and nonspecialists alike.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"[...] an excellent selection of articles. They are written by some of the best known scientists in this area of computational physics and chemistry. [...] The authors have tried to illuminate the general ideas behind the different simulation techniques and to present them in a clear manner. [...] I strongly recommend this book to all scientists who are interested in modern applications of computer simulations." (Andreas Heuer, ChemPhysChem 4/7, 2003)
