The search for local structures within a disordered medium has led to proposals of several methods for probing transient short-range symmetry in a homogeneous mono-atomic liquid. We offer a comparison of different characterizations of such…
An order--disorder phase transition is observed for Ising-like systems even for arbitrarily chosen probabilities of spins flips [K. Malarz et al, Int. J. Mod. Phys. C 22, 719 (2011)]. For such athermal dynamics one must define $(z+1)$ spin…
We study an alloy system where short-ranged, thermally-driven diffusion competes with externally imposed, finite-ranged, athermal atomic exchanges, as is the case in alloys under irradiation. Using a Cahn-Hilliard-type approach, we show…
We investigate a one-dimensional system of $N$ particles, initially distributed with random positions and velocities, interacting through binary collisions. The collision rule is such that there is a time after which the $N$ particles do…
Metastable transitions in Langevin dynamics can exhibit rich behaviors that are markedly different from its overdamped limit. In addition to local alterations of the transition path geometry, more fundamental global changes may exist. For…
We present a new framework to treat the dissipation and fluctuation dynamics associated with nucleon-nucleon scattering in heavy-ion collisions. The two-body collision processes are effectively described in terms of the diffusion of…
We use nematic Multi-particle Collision Dynamics (N-MPCD) simulations to study confined nematic liquid crystals in square domains, with three distinct mean-field potentials: the classical Maier-Saupe and Marrucci-Greco models, and a more…
Gas-solid multiphase flows are prone to develop an instability known as clustering. Two-fluid models, which treat the particulate phase as a continuum, are known to reproduce the qualitative features of this instability, producing…
Particles and fields are standard components in numerical simulations like transport simulations in nuclear physics and have very well understood dynamics. Still, a common problem is the interaction between particles and fields due to their…
Driven non-equilibrium lattice models have wide-ranging applications in contexts such as mass transport, traffic flow, and transport in biological systems. In this work, we investigate the steady-state properties of a one-dimensional…
The dynamics of the one-dimensional random transverse Ising model with both nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) interactions is studied in the high-temperature limit by the method of recurrence relations. Both the…
We study the spatial patterns formed by a system of interacting particles where the mobility of any individual is determined by the population crowding at two different spatial scales. In this way we model the behavior of some biological…
Self-assembly of particles with short-range attraction and long-range repulsion (SALR) interactions on a flat and on a spherical surface is compared. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed for the two systems having the same area…
I show that two-dimensional nematic order in an active fluid film can be stable and long-ranged if exchange of particles and momentum with an ambient three-dimensional fluid is allowed. Number-conserving films present an instability, with a…
When two molecular species with mutual affinity are mixed together, various self-assembled phases can arise at low temperature, depending on the shape of like and unlike interactions. Among them, stripes -- where layers of one type are…
We present a first-principles formalism for studying dynamical heterogeneities in glass forming liquids. Based on the Non-Equilibrium Self-Consistent Generalized Langevin Equation theory, we were able to describe the time-dependent local…
There are rich emergent phase behaviors in non-equilibrium active systems. Flocking and clustering are two representative dynamic phases. The relationship between these two phases is still unclear. In the paper, we numerically investigate…
We apply the recently developed adaptive ensemble optimization technique to simulate dense Lennard-Jones fluids and a particle-solvent model by broad-histogram Monte Carlo techniques. Equilibration of the simulated fluid is improved by…
