Lennard-Jones-Devonshire equation of state is an old but theoretical based EOS. The concept of the nearest neighboring molecules or coordination number is proposed to be a function of temperature and volume, whereas it is a constant in the original. The dilute gas and hard sphere limits of molecules are employed to determine this function. Improvement of this modification is demonstrated by pro...

Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics calculations of the shear viscosity of supercritical carbon dioxide along the 313 K isotherm are reported. Three different intermolecular potential models of increasing complexity are considered: a spherically symmetric Lennard-Jones potential, a two-site Lennard-Jones potential, and a three-site potential which includes a quadrupole-quadrupole moment. Results ...

In this study, the radial distribution and gravimetric storage capacities of hydrogen on coronene (C24H12) and its Si substituted forms, C24H12, C24-nSinH12 (n= 4-24), have been investigated at 298 K and 0.1 MPa (standard situation) using (N,V,T) Monte Carlo simulation by Lennard-Jones (LJ) 12-6 potential. The results show that the increase of number of silicon substitution doesn’t have any eff...

The Lennard-Jones potential for an atom inside a conducting spherical cavity is derived. The interest is in possible anomalous effects near the focal point of a cavity viewed as a spherical mirror. We find a smooth dependence of the potential on the distance of the atom from the surface of the cavity. 1 Plane Mirror and the C3 coefficient Let us consider first a plane mirror, assumed to lie in ...

An analytical equation of state is applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon. Theequation of state is that of Song and Mason. It is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbation theory ofhard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. There exist three temperaturedependentparameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecular volume,...

hf level of ab initio calculations with basis-set 6-31g including full counterpoise correction hasbeen applied to compute the asphis potential with the ser and hisser potential with the asp inasphisser trimer. the potential energy surface has a minimum of -16.765 kcal/mol in r1=1.912nm and r2=2.719 nm. the optimum computed curves for two interactions were fitted withintermolecular pair potentia...

Atomistic simulations of nucleic acids are prohibitively expensive and, consequently, reduced models of these compounds are of great interest in the field. In this work, we propose a physics-based coarse-grained model of nucleic-acid bases in which each base is represented by several (3-5) interaction centers. van der Waals interactions are modeled by Lennard-Jones spheres with a 12-6 potential...
