A lattice version of the nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard equation describing spinodal decomposition of binary alloys is studied via Monte-Carlo simulation, considering a two-dimensional system at critical concentration. The linearization approximation is found to be rather inaccurate even if the final tempe

## Abstract A formal partially dynamical approach to ergodic sampling, hybrid Monte Carlo, has been adapted for the first time from its proven application in quantum chromodynamics to realistic molecular systems. A series of simulations of pancreatic trypsin inhibitor were run using temperatureβres
A brief review is given of applications of Monte Carlo simulations to study the dynamical properties of coarse-grained models of polymer melts, emphasizing the crossover from the Rouse model toward reptation, and the glass transition. The extent to which Monte Carlo algorithms can mimic the actual c
## Abstract **Summary:** The structure of polymer brushes is investigated by dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulations that include explicit solvent particles. With an appropriate choice of the DPD interaction parameters $a\_{ij}$, we obtain good agreement with previous molecular dynamics (MD
