Microscopic and Macroscopic Stress with Gravitational and Rotational Forces
Wm. G. Hoover, Carol G. Hoover, James F. Lutsko
Many recent papers have questioned Irving and Kirkwood's atomistic expression for stress. In Irving and Kirkwood's approach both interatomic forces and atomic velocities contribute…
50 Years of Computer Simulation -- a Personal View
Wm. G. Hoover
In the half century since the 1950s computer simulation has transformed our understanding of physics. The rare, expensive, slow, and bulky mainframes of World War II have given way…
Nonequilibrium Temperature and Thermometry in Heat-Conducting Phi-4 Models
Wm. G. Hoover, Carol G. Hoover
We analyze temperature and thermometry for simple nonequilibrium heat-conducting models. We show in detail, for both two- and three-dimensional systems, that the ideal gas thermome…
Hamiltonian Dynamics of Thermostated Systems: Two-Temperature Heat-Conducting phi-4 Chains
Wm G Hoover, Carol G Hoover
We consider and compare four Hamiltonian formulations of thermostated mechanics, three of them kinetic, and the other one configurational. Though all four approaches ``work'' at eq…
Smooth-Particle Phase Stability with density and density-gradient potentials
Wm G Hoover, Carol G Hoover
Stable fluid and solid particle phases are essential to the simulation of continuum fluids and solids using Smooth Particle Applied Mechanics. We show that density-dependent potent…
