I describe a class of spin models with short-range plaquette interactions, whose static equilibrium properties are trivial, but which display glassy dynamics at low temperatures. These models have a dual description in terms of free defects subject to effective kinetic constraints, and are thus an explicit realization of the constrained dynamics picture of glassy systems.

To study the coexistence of two liquid states of water within one simulation box, we implement an equilibrium sedimentation method--which involves applying a gravitational field to the system and measuring or calculating the resulting density profile in equilibrium. We simulate a system of particles interacting via the Stillinger-2 (ST2) potential, a model for water. We detect the coexistence o...

this study aimed to construct the hydrate three-phase equilibrium curves for two typical iranian gas reservoir samples using a high-pressure visual cell. to do so, complete analysis of the reservoir fluids was obtained by different techniques of composition analysis i.e. gas chromatography (gc) and detailed hydrocarbon analysis (dha). using high-pressure visual cell the hydrate phase equilibriu...

abstract: this paper is the first study on the impact of ambient temperature on the electrical characteristics and high frequency performances of double gate armchair graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (gnrfet). the results illustrate that the gnrfet under high temperature (ht-gnrfet) has the highest cut-off frequency, lowest sub-threshold swing, lowest intrinsic delay and power delay ...

The viscoelastic properties of strongly coupled Yukawa liquids are characterized by computing the complex shear viscosity η(ω) . This is done using three methods of molecular-dynamics simulation: equilibrium, nonequilibrium, and Langevin dynamics, all with a mutually repulsive Yukawa interparticle potential. A change from viscous to elastic response is observed with increasing frequency, as wel...

The off-equilibrium dynamics of a monatomic Lennard-Jones glass is numerically investigated after sudden isothermal density jumps (crunch) from well equilibrated liquid configurations towards the glassy state. The generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation has been studied and the temperature dependence of the violation factor m is found in agreement with the one step replica symmetry breakin...
