For example, cooking uses many kinds of crystallized products, such as salt, sugar, and fat crystals; electronic devices contain semiconductor crystals; living organisms produce mineral crystals to maintain biological processes; and snow and ice crystals play a crucial role in climate change. For these and other topics related to crystals, an especially important area of research is crystal growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComputer simulations of crystal growth have become increasingly important as a result of rapid increases in available computing power. Computer simulations can analyze and predict various aspects of crystal growth, including molecular-scale growth and nucleation mechanisms, the structure and dynamics of surfaces and interfaces, and pattern formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book presents state-of-the-art research and reviews of computer simulation studies on crystal growth for hard-sphere particles, organic molecules, ice, and functional materials. The studies use a variety of simulation methodologies, including molecular simulations, first-principles simulations, continuum simulations, and multiscale simulations. This book will interest graduate students and researchers in crystal growth science and technology and will provide a helpful reference for scientists who want to familiarize themselves with computer simulations of crystal growth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MDPI AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67810443526511,"sku":"9783038973560","price":351.51,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/advances-in-computer-simulation-studies-on-crystal-growth","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
