Nonlinear dynamics of a particle in an electric and magnetic field
This work involves the computational study of a charged particle (electron) in the field of a heavy particle (proton) and an applied constant magnetic field. When either the magnetic field or the central field of the proton are "switched off", closed analytic solutions for the classical dynamics …

Classical Hamiltonian dynamics of a particle interacting with the vibrational modes of a one-dimensional medium
"The polaron and more generally the basic problem of a particle interacting with the vibrational modes of the local medium are important to a large range of physical processes. The complex behavior and underlying properties of polaron dynamics has been the focus of much research for many years. …

Physics-based point placement by particle dynamics simulation
… Lennard-Jones pair potential and a simplified particle dynamics simulation. This method produces smooth distributions of points which accurately correspond to desired scalar spacing fields. Resulting point distributions are triangulated using Lawson's algorithm and the quality of these …

Quantum Simulation of Many-body Systems with Superconducting Qubits
The study of interacting many-body quantum systems is central to the understanding of wide a range of physical phenomena in condensed-matter systems, quantum gravity, and quantum circuits. However, quantum systems are often hard to study analytically, and the classical computing resources required …

Parallel simulation of particle dynamics with application to micropolar peridynamic lattice modeling of reinforced concrete Structures
As the first goal of this thesis, we will explain a general purpose parallel particle dynamics code (pdQ2). We describe the re-architecting of pdQ (the MD/PD code that was developed in [Sakhavand 2011]) as pdQ2. pdQ2 is completely non-domain-specific in that user files are clearly separated from …

Domain patterns and domain wall dynamics in small-scale ferroelectrics
… address two major themes: firstly, the intrinsic dynamics of switching in meso/nanoscale ferroelectrics incorporated into device geometries, and secondly, the development of control over the precise mechanics of switching by altering the ferroelectric morphology therein.<br/><br/> In addressing …

Electrohydrodynamic interactions of colloidal particles undergoing Quincke rotation
Quincke rotation, a well-observed phenomenon in particle suspensions, denotes the spontaneous rotation of dielectric particles immersed in a slightly dielectric liquid when subjected to a high enough DC electric field. Quincke rotation occurs when the charge relaxation time of the particles is …
