Simulating soft matter systems such as the cytoskeleton can enable deep understanding of experimentally observed phenomena. One challenge modelling is realistic description steric repulsion between nearby polymers. Previous models polymeric excluded volume interaction have deficit being non-analytic, computationally expensive, or allowing polymers to erroneously cross each other. A recent solut...

This paper studies physical aging by computer simulations of a 2:1 Kob-Andersen binary Lennard-Jones mixture, system that is less prone to crystallization than the standard 4:1 composition. Starting from thermal-equilibrium states, time evolution following four quantities monitored up and down jumps in temperature: potential energy, virial, average squared force, Laplacian energy. Despite fact ...
