With the central importance of electric polarizability and hyperpolarizability for a wide spectrum of activities, this book charts the trends in the accurate theoretical determination of these properties in specialized fields. The contributions include reviews and original papers that extend from methodology to applications in specific areas of primary importance such as cluster science and organic synthesis of molecules with specific properties./a
This book is an account of current developments in computational chemistry, a new multidisciplinary area of research. Experts in computational chemistry, the editors use and develop techniques for computer-assisted molecular design. The core of the text itself deals with techniques for computer-assisted molecular design. The book is suitable for both beginners and experts. In addition, protocols and software for molecular recognition and the relationship between structure and biological activity of drug molecules are discussed in detail. Each chapter includes a mini-tutorial, as well as discussion of advanced topics. Special Feature: The appendix to this book contains an extensive list of available software for molecular modeling.
This volume, like those prior to it, features chapters by experts in various fields of computational chemistry. Volume 27 covers brittle fracture, molecular detailed simulations of lipid bilayers, semiclassical bohmian dynamics, dissipative particle dynamics, trajectory-based rare event simulations, and understanding metal/metal electrical contact conductance from the atomic to continuum scales. Also included is a chapter on career opportunities in computational chemistry and an appendix listing the e-mail addresses of more than 2500 people in that discipline. FROM REVIEWS OF THE SERIES "Reviews in Computational Chemistry remains the most valuable reference to methods and techniques in computational chemistry." —JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR GRAPHICS AND MODELLING "One cannot generally do better than to try to find an appropriate article in the highly successful Reviews in Computational Chemistry. The basic philosophy of the editors seems to be to help the authors produce chapters that are complete, accurate, clear, and accessible to experimentalists (in particular) and other nonspecialists (in general)." —JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY
THIS BOOK HAS SIX TUTORIALS AND REVIEWS WRITTEN BY INVITED EXPERTS. FIVE CHAPTERS TEACH TOPICS IN QUANTUM MECHANICS AND MOLECULAR SIMULATIONS. THE SIXTH CHAPTER EXPLAINS HOW PROGRAMS FOR CHEMICAL STRUCTURE DRAWING WORK. AN EDITORIAL DISCUSSES SOME OF THE MOST WELL-KNOWN PERSONAGES IN COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY. FROM REVIEWS OF THE SERIES "Anyone who is doing or intends to do computational research on molecular structure and design should seriously consider purchasing this book for his or her personal library."-JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY. "These reviews are becoming regarded as the standard reference among both specialists and novices in the expanding field of computational chemistry." -JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR GRAPHICS AND MODELLING. "[This book is] written for newcomers learning about molecular modeling techniques as well as for seasoned professionals who need to acquire expertise in areas outside their own."-JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL INFORMATION AND COMPUTER SCIENCE.
Modelling in polymer materials science has experienced a dramatic growth in the last two decades. Advances in modeling methodologies together with rapid growth in computational power have made it possible to address increasingly complex questions both of a fundamental and of a more applied nature.Multiscale Modelling of Polymer Properties assembles research done on modeling of polymeric materials from a hierarchical point of view, in which several methods are combined in a multilevel approach to complex polymeric materials. Contributions from academic and industrial experts are organized in two parts: the first one addresses the methodological aspects while the second one focuses on specific applications. The book aims at comprehensively assessing the current state of the field, including the strengths and shortcomings of available modelling techniques, and at identifying future needs and trends.* Several levels of approximation to the field of polymer modelling; ranging from first-principles to purely macroscopic * Contributions from both academic and industrial experts with varying fields of expertise* Assesses current state of this emerging and rapidly growing field
