Complex soft matter systems can be efficiently studied with the help of adaptive resolution simulation methods, concurrently employing two levels of resolution in different regions of the simulation domain. The non-matching properties of…
We study structure and fluid-phase behaviour of a binary mixture of hard spheres (HSs) and hard spherocylinders (HSCs) in isotropic and nematic states using the $NP_nAT$ ensemble Monte Carlo (MC) method in which a normal pressure tensor…
The basic problem in equilibrium statistical mechanics is to compute phase space average, in which Monte Carlo method plays a very important role. We begin with a review of nonlocal algorithms for Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation in…
We present a new method for Monte Carlo or Molecular Dynamics numerical simulations of three dimensional polar fluids. The simulation cell is defined to be the surface of the northern hemisphere of a four-dimensional (hyper)sphere. The…
A method is presented to tackle the sign problem in the simulations of systems having indefinite or complex-valued measures. In general, this new approach is shown to yield statistical errors smaller than the crude Monte Carlo using…
A linear stability analysis of the hydrodynamic equations with respect to the homogeneous cooling state is carried out to identify the conditions for stability as functions of the wave vector, the dissipation, and the density. In contrast…
We describe and analyze some Monte Carlo methods for manifolds in Euclidean space defined by equality and inequality constraints. First, we give an MCMC sampler for probability distributions defined by un-normalized densities on such…
We present a promising coarse-graining strategy for linking micro- and mesoscales of soft matter systems. The approach is based on effective pairwise interaction potentials obtained from detailed atomistic molecular dynamics (MD)…
Monte Carlo methods play important part in modern statistical physics. The application of these methods suffer from two main difficulties.The first is caused by the relatively small number of particles that can participate in any numerical…
We introduce the model of inelastic hard spheres with random restitution coefficient $\alpha$, in order to account for the fact that, in a vertically shaken granular system interacting elastically with the vibrating boundary, the energy…
Quantum Monte Carlo methods are used to calculate various ground state properties of charged bosons in two dimensions, throughout the whole density range where the fluid phase is stable. Wigner crystallization is predicted at $r_s\simeq…
We present molecular dynamics simulations of mono- or bidisperse inelastic granular gases driven by vibrating walls, in two dimensions (without gravity). Because of the energy injection at the boundaries, a situation often met…
A two-dimensional fluid of hard spheres each having a spin $\pm 1$ and interacting via short-range Ising-like interaction is studied near the second order phase transition from the paramagnetic gas to the ferromagnetic gas phase. Monte…
A grid-free variant of the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is proposed, named the Isotropic DSMC (I-DSMC) method, that is suitable for simulating dense fluid flows at molecular scales. The I-DSMC algorithm eliminates all grid…
We formulate and test a hybrid fluid-Monte Carlo scheme for the treatment of elastic collisions in gases and plasmas. While our primary focus and demonstrations of applicability are for moderately collisional plasmas, as described by the…
We study a 1-D granular gas of point-like particles not subject to gravity between two walls at temperatures T_left and T_right. The system exhibits two distinct regimes, depending on the normalized temperature difference Delta = (T_right -…
We put forward a simple procedure for extracting dynamical information from Monte Carlo simulations, by appropriate matching of the short-time diffusion tensor with its infinite-dilution limit counterpart, which is supposed to be known.…
In this paper, we investigate thermal fluctuations of the granular gas, which is driven by Gaussian thermostat, on the basis of two-point kinetic theory. In particular, we consider thermal fluctuations of the inelastic variable sphere,…
Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out to investigate the diffusion behavior of penetrable-sphere model fluids characterized by a finite energy barrier $\epsilon$. The self-diffusion coefficient is evaluated from the time-dependent…
The homogeneous state of a granular flow of smooth inelastic hard spheres or disks described by the Enskog-Boltzmann kinetic equation is analyzed. The granular gas is fluidized by the presence of a random force and a drag force. The…
