Lattice-Gas Crystallization
Abstract
This paper presents a new lattice-gas method for molecular dynamics modeling. A mean field treatment is given and is applied to a linear stability analysis. Exact numerical simulations of the solid-phase crystallization is presented, as is a finite-temperature multiphase liquid-gas system. The lattice-gas method, a discrete dynamical method, is therefore capable of representing a variety of collective phenomena in multiple regimes from the hydrodynamic scale down to a molecular dynamics scale.
