From molecular dynamics to coarse self-similar solutions: A simple example using equation-free computation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the context of the recently developed “equation-free” approach to the computerassisted analysis of complex systems, we illustrate the computation of coarsely selfsimilar solutions. Dynamic renormalization and fixed point algorithms for the macroscopic density dynamics are applied to the results of short bursts of appropriately initialized molecular dynamics in a simple diffusion simulation. The approach holds promise for locating coarse self-similar solutions and the corresponding exponents in a variety of multiscale computational contexts. ∗Corresponding author, [email protected], tel (609) 258-2818, FAX (609) 258-0211

Equation-free, Coarse-grained Multiscale Computation: Enabling Microscopic Simulators to Perform System-level Analysis∗
We present and discuss a framework for computer-aided multiscale analysis, which enables models at a fine (microscopic/stochastic) level of description to perform modeling tasks at a coarse (macroscopic, systems) level. These macroscopic modeling tasks, yielding information over long time and large space scales, are accomplished through appropriately initialized calls to the microscopic simulat...
متن کاملEquation-Free Multiscale Computational Analysis of Individual-Based Epidemic Dynamics on Networks
The surveillance, analysis and ultimately the efficient long-term prediction and control of epidemic dynamics appear to be one of the major challenges nowadays. Detailed atomistic mathematical models play an important role towards this aim. In this work it is shown how one can exploit the Equation Free approach and optimization methods such as Simulated Annealing to bridge detailed individual-b...
متن کاملCoarse-grained computation of traveling waves of lattice Boltzmann models with Newton–Krylov solvers
For many complex dynamical systems, a separation of scales prevails between the (microscopic) level of description of the available model, and the (macroscopic) level at which one would like to observe and analyze the system. For this type of problems, an “equation-free” framework has recently been proposed. Using appropriately initialized microscopic simulations, one can build a coarse-grained...
متن کاملDeciding the Nature of the Coarse Equation through Microscopic Simulations: The Baby-Bathwater Scheme
Recent developments in multiscale computation allow the solution of coarse equations for the expected macroscopic behavior of microscopically evolving particles without ever obtaining these coarse equations in closed form. The closure is obtained on demand through appropriately initialized bursts of microscopic simulation. The effective coupling of microscopic simulators with macroscopic behavi...
