TLDR
In this paper, Monte Carlo methods were used to simulate real liquids in real space, and to reproduce the thermodynamic properties of a real liquid assembly, on the basis of the geometrical descriptions of part I, the structures of these simulated arrays were compared with the random packing.Abstract:
Machine calculations by Monte Carlo methods enable us to simulate real liquids in real space, and to reproduce the thermodynamic properties of a real liquid assembly. On the basis of the geometrical descriptions of part I, the structures of these simulated arrays are compared with the random packing. The results demonstrate the essential validity of Bernal's concept of the liquid state; moreover, by artificially hardening the interaction potential, we can throw light upon the structural differences between real and idealized systems.read more

Discrete particle simulation of particulate systems: A review of major applications and findings
TL;DR: Zhu et al. as discussed by the authors provided a summary of the studies based on discrete particle simulation in the past two decades or so, with emphasis on the microdynamics including packing/flow structure and particle-particle, particle-fluid and particle wall interaction forces.

TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of the underlying metastable phase, the amorphous phase, is developed, which is useful for describing the behavior of the viscosity of dense liquids and glasses.

Van der waals picture of liquids, solids, and phase transformations.
TL;DR: The van der Waals picture focuses on the differing roles of the strong short-ranged repulsive intermolecular forces and the longer ranged attractions in determining the structure and dynamics of dense fluids and solids.

Serially Deposited Amorphous Aggregates of Hard Spheres
TL;DR: In this paper, a large aggregate of several thousand equal hard spheres was constructed by depositing additional spheres, one at a time, at surface sites on a small seed cluster, placing each new sphere in contact with three already present and not moving it afterward.

Modelling the structures of amorphous metals and alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, the application of random packing models to amorphous metals and metal-metalloid alloys is discussed, with particular reference to the effects of soft potentials, boundary conditions, and density.

The Mathematical Theory of Communication
TL;DR: The theory of communication is extended to include a number of new factors, in particular the effect of noise in the channel, and the savings possible due to the statistical structure of the original message anddue to the nature of the final destination of the information.

Computer "Experiments" on Classical Fluids. I. Thermodynamical Properties of Lennard-Jones Molecules
TL;DR: In this article, the equilibrium properties of a system of 864 particles interacting through a Lennard-Jones potential have been integrated for various values of the temperature and density, relative, generally, to a fluid state.

The Bakerian Lecture, 1962. The Structure of Liquids
TL;DR: The notion of a crystal or a solid in general as an arrangement of molecules in rank and file, as Newton put it, is, in fact, older than Newton yet its quantitative statement was made possible only through the work of Born and others in our own century.
