Computer simulations of the restricted primitive model at very low temperature and density
Chantal Valeriani, Philip J. Camp, Jos W. Zwanikken +2
The problem of successfully simulating ionic fluids at low temperature and low density states is well known in the simulation literature: using conventional methods, the system is…
Homogeneous Bubble Nucleation driven by local hot spots: a Molecular Dynamics Study
Zun-Jing Wang, Chantal Valeriani, Daan Frenkel
We report a Molecular Dynamics study of homogenous bubble nucleation in a Lennard-Jones fluid. The rate of bubble nucleation is estimated using forward-flux sampling (FFS). We find…
Out-of-equilibrium processes in suspensions of oppositely charged colloids: liquid-to-crystal nucleation and gel formation
Eduardo Sanz, Chantal Valeriani, Teun Vissers +5
We study the kinetics of the liquid-to-crystal transformation and of gel formation in colloidal suspensions of oppositely charged particles. We analyse, by means of both computer s…
Computing stationary distributions in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems with Forward Flux Sampling
Chantal Valeriani, Rosalind J. Allen, Marco J. Morelli +2
We present a method for computing stationary distributions for activated processes in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems using Forward Flux Sampling (FFS). In this method, the…
Forward Flux Sampling for rare event simulations
Rosalind J. Allen, Chantal Valeriani, Pieter Rein ten Wolde
Rare events are ubiquitous in many different fields, yet they are notoriously difficult to simulate because few, if any, events are observed in a conventiona l simulation run. Over…
