Mechanism of the Cassie-Wenzel transition via the atomistic and continuum string methods
Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni, Marcus Mueller +1
The string method is a general and flexible strategy to compute the most probable transition path for an activated process (rare event). We apply here the atomistic string method i…
Accurate simulation estimates of cloud points of polydisperse fluids
Matteo Buzzacchi, Peter Sollich, Nigel B. Wilding +1
We describe two distinct approaches to obtaining cloud point densities and coexistence properties of polydisperse fluid mixtures by Monte Carlo simulation within the grand canonica…
Phase transitions in nanosystems caused by interface motion: The Ising bi-pyramid with competing surface fields
A. Milchev, M. Mueller, K. Binder
The phase behavior of a large but finite Ising ferromagnet in the presence of competing surface magnetic fields +/- H_s is studied by Monte Carlo simulations and by phenomenologica…
