Simple models for the structure and dynamics of polyatomic fluids

Creator:

James, Corinne Patricia

Abstract:

Three areas of liquid state theory are considered. First, Monte Carlo computer simulation of a two-dimensional hard disk fluid with an imbedded ellipse was undertaken to determine how a non-spherical molecule affects intermolecular ordering. The elliptical molecule (with axial ratios of 2, 5 and 10) altered the isotropic distribution of...
