While  simulations of liquid crystals are based on the same general Monte  Carlo and molecular dynamics techniques as are used for other fluids,  they present a number of specific problems and peculiarities connected  to the intrinsic properties of these mesophases. \u003cbr\u003e  The field of computer simulations of anisotropic fluids is  interdisciplinary and is evolving very rapidly. The present volume  covers a variety of techniques and model systems, from lattices to  hard particle and Gay-Berne to atomistic, for thermotropics,  lyotropics, and some biologically interesting liquid crystals.  Contributions are written by an excellent panel of international  lecturers and provides a timely account of the techniques and problems  in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792360988\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4225-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 427\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46311662125196,"sku":"9780792360988","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792360988.jpg?v=1771510063","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792360988","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
