Energy Transmission across Acoustically Mismatched Solid Junctions
Jian Wang, Jian-Sheng Wang
We derive expression for energy flux in terms of lattice normal mode coordinates. Energy transmission across solid junctions from lattice dynamic point of view is given and its rel…
Ballistic Thermal Conduction across Acoustically Mismatched Solid Junctions
Jian Wang, Jian-Sheng Wang
We derive expressions for energy flow in terms of lattice normal mode coordinates and energy transmission involving reduced group velocities. With a version of Landauer formula app…
Efficient Monte Carlo Simulation Methods in Statistical Physics
Jian-Sheng Wang
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 nonloca…
Local, Cluster, and Transitional Monte Carlo Dynamics
Jian-Sheng Wang
We review the local Monte Carlo dynamics and Swendsen-Wang cluster algorithm. We introduce and analyze a new Monte Carlo dynamics known as transitional Monte Carlo. The transitiona…
Cluster Monte Carlo algorithms and their applications
Jian-Sheng Wang
We review the background of the cluster algorithms in Monte Carlo simulation of statistical physics problems. One of the first such successful algorithm was developed by Swendsen a…
Anisotropic Finite-Size Scaling Analysis of a Two-Dimensional Driven Diffusive System
Jian-Sheng Wang
Extensive Monte Carlo simulation results of the standard two-dimensional driven diffusive systems are obtained using a multispin coding technique. The nonequilibrium phase transiti…
