Download or read book Bridging the Time Scales written by Peter Nielaba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-10-13 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The behaviour of many complex materials extends over time- and lengthscales well beyond those that can normally be described using standard molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo simulation techniques. As progress is coming more through refined simulation methods than from increased computer power, this volume is intended as both an introduction and a review of all relevant modern methods that will shape molecular simulation in the forthcoming decade. Written as a set of tutorial reviews, the book will be of use to specialists and nonspecialists alike.
