In this paper, a method was developed to investigate the behavior of a liquid under the action of a very high shearing force using computer simulated molecular dynamics, which can be applied to arbitrarily large shear.
Abstract
A method is developed to investigate the behaviour of a liquid under the action of a very high shearing force using computer simulated molecular dynamics. Values for the viscosity are calculated but these require more extensive computation for statistical accuracy. A short calculation is, however, sufficient to establish the nature of the processes involved, and to plot the velocity distribution curve; these graphs are presented. The method abandons the usual homogeneous isotropic cyclic conditions used so far in calculation of transport coefficients and can be applied to arbitrarily large shear.

TL;DR: The heterogeneous multiscales method (HMM), a general framework for designing multiscale algorithms, is reviewed and emphasis is given to the error analysis that comes naturally with the framework.

Shear thickening, frictionless and frictional rheologies in non-Brownian suspensions

TL;DR: In this paper, Seto et al. investigated the effect of friction on shear thickening and found frictional contact forces to be essential and were able to reproduce the experimental behavior by a simulation including this physical ingredient along with viscous lubrication.

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.

Studies in Molecular Dynamics. VIII. The Transport Coefficients for a Hard-Sphere Fluid

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the predictions of the Enskog theory with the observed deviations from an exponentially decaying autocorrelation function for many mean collision times, indicating that highly collective effects must be involved.

Transport Coefficients from Dissipation in a Canonical Ensemble

TL;DR: In this paper, the average changes with time which occur in members of a canonical ensemble when the initial state of one particle is partially specified are studied. And the authors derived expressions analogous to the Einstein equation for self-diffusion of a Brownian particle.
