Computer Modelling techniques have developed very rapidly during
the last decade, and interact with many contemporary scientific
disciplines. One of the areas of greatest activity has concerned
the modelling of condensed phases, including liquids solids and
amorphous systems, where simulations have been used to provide
insight into basic physical processes and in more recent years to
make reliable predictions of the properties of the systems
simulated. Indeed the predictive role of simulations is
increasingly recognised both in academic and industrial contexts.
Current active areas of application include topics as diverse as
the viscosity of liquids, the conformation of proteins, the
behaviour of hydrogen in metals, the diffusion of molecules in
porous catalysts and the properties of micelles. This book, which
is based on a NATO ASI held at the University of Bath, UK, from
September 5th-17th, 1988, aims to give a general survey of this
field, with detailed discussions both of methodologies and of
applications. The earlier chapters of the book are devoted mainly
to techniques and the later ones to recent simulation studies of
fluids, polymers (including biological molecules) and solids.
Special attention is paid to the role of interatomic potentials
which are the fundamental physical input to simulations. In
addition, developments in computer hardware are considered in
depth, owing to the crucial role which such developments are
playing in the expansion of the horizons of computer modelling
studies.
