✦ Synopsis


We describe a concurrent implementation on cost-effective transputer arrays of a molecular dynamics program to efficiently simulate physical systems consisting of thousands of mobile particles with an interaction range much shorter than the system dimensions. This program, which uses a geometric decomposition strategy and includes a distributed dynamic load balancer, has been extensively tested by simulating the two-dimensional spinodal phase separation of a large Lennard-Jones system.

Structural phase transitions in RbNO 3 and CsNO 3 are studied by molecular dynamics. The simulations are based on the parameter-free potentials calculated from the Gordon+Kim modi5ed electron gas formalism, extended to ionic molecular crystals. The microscopic mechanism of the structural phase trans
