Motivation: Why Use Monte Carlo in LAMMPS?
Limitations of MD:
- Does not allow number of particles to change
- Sampling limited by slow translational dynamics e.g. interdiffusion in metal alloys
Monte Carlo Methods:
- Allow unphysical moves that can overcome kinetic barriers
- Allows atoms or molecules to be added or removed
- Allows atoms to switch to a different element
-
Faithfully preserves equilibrium Boltzmann probability distribution of atomic configurations, atom counts, molecule counts, etc.
