Orthorhombic Phase of Crystalline Polyethylene: A Monte Carlo Study
In this paper we present a classical Monte Carlo simulation of the orthorhombic phase of crystalline polyethylene, using an explicit atom force field with unconstrained bond lengths and angles and periodic boundary conditions. We used a recently developed algorithm which apart from standard Metropolis local moves employs also global moves consisting of displacements of the center of mass of the...
متن کاملOrthorhombic Phase of Crystalline Polyethylene: A Constant Pressure Path Integral Monte Carlo Study
In this paper we present a Path Integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulation of the orthorhombic phase of crystalline polyethylene, using an explicit atom force field with unconstrained bond lengths and angles. This work represents a quantum extension of our recent classical simulation [1]. It is aimed both at exploring the applicability of the PIMC method on such polymer crystal systems, as well as ...
متن کاملTransitions between imperfectly ordered crystalline structures: a phase switch Monte Carlo study.
A model for two-dimensional colloids confined laterally by "structured boundaries" (i.e., ones that impose a periodicity along the slit) is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. When the distance D between the confining walls is reduced at constant particle number from an initial value D(0), for which a crystalline structure commensurate with the imposed periodicity fits, to smaller values, a suc...
متن کاملPhase separation driven by surface diffusion: a Monte Carlo study.
We propose a kinetic Ising model to study phase separation driven by surface diffusion. This model is referred to as Model S, and consists of the usual Kawasaki spin-exchange kinetics (Model B) in conjunction with a kinetic constraint. We use multispin coding techniques to develop fast algorithms for Monte Carlo simulations of Models B and S. We use these algorithms to study the late stages of ...
متن کاملPhase Transitions in Driven Bilayer Systems: A Monte Carlo Study.
We investigate the phase diagram of a system with two layers of an Ising lattice gas at half filling. In addition to the usual intralayer nearest neighbor attractive interaction, there is an interlayer potential J . Under equilibrium conditions, the phase diagram is symmetric under J ! 2J , though the ground states are different. The effects of imposing a uniform external drive, studied by simu...
