Determination of Elastic Moduli of the r^(−12) Soft Disk Crystal by the Minimum Image Method

Tretiakov Konstantin V., Wojciechowski Krzysztof W.

Elastic moduli of soft disk crystals close to the melting point have been evaluated by Monte Carlo simulations. The inverse-power potential has been used to model the interactions between particles. In calculations of the elastic moduli by the Parrinello-Rahman formalism, the long-range interacti ...
