Hoover NPT dynamics for systems varying in shape and size

In this paper we write down equations of motion (following the approach pioneered by Hoover) for an exact isothermal-isobaric molecular dynamics simulation, and we extend them to multiple thermostating rates, to a shape-varying cell and to molecular systems, coherently with the previous 'extend...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper we write down equations of motion (following the approach pioneered by Hoover) for an exact isothermal-isobaric molecular dynamics simulation, and we extend them to multiple thermostating rates, to a shape-varying cell and to molecular systems, coherently with the previous 'extended system method'. An integration scheme is proposed together with a numerical illustration of the method.
