Quasiharmonic lattice dynamics is a simulation technique complementary to Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics. Quantum effects are readily taken into account, and high precision does not normally require long runs. Vibrational stability is a sensitive

Adiabatic thermoelastic heating can be used to monitor stress fluctuations in solids. Previous studies of the effects on the temperature fluctuations both of applied static stress and of the finite amplitude of the stress fluctuations have used appro

Calculations of thermodynamic properties of crystals by means of quasi-harmonic lattice dynamics require numerical integrations over the Brillouin zone, using successively finer grids to achieve convergence to the required precision; but for complex

Two novel methods recently proposed by us for the calculation of the thermodynamic properties of solid solutions are compared. Results are presented for the mixing of MnO/MgO and CaO/MgO. It is crucial to sample many different configurations and allo

Ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations for NaCl are used to derive the changes across the $B1\ensuremath{-}B2$ phase transition in both the bulk modulus $(\ensuremath{\Delta}{K}_{T})$ and the transverse infrared frequency $(\ensuremath{\Delta}{\ensurema

Quasiharmonic lattice dynamics is used to examine the mechanisms underlying the anisotropic thermal expansion of orthorhombic polyethylene, with particular attention to low temperature behavior. Several sets of interatomic potentials all give good qu

This paper describes Shell, a program which uses lattice statics and quasiharmonic lattice dynamics to calculate analytically the free energy of a crystal, and its derivatives with respect to both internal and external strains, at a given temperature

A method is presented for the calculation of the gradient of the free energy with respect to all the internal and external degrees of freedom of a periodic crystal. This gradient can be used in conjunction with a static-energy Hessian for efficient g

A combination of periodic Hartree–Fock theory, quasiharmonic lattice dynamics, and molecular dynamics is used to study the behavior of MgF2 at elevated temperatures and/or high pressures. Particular attention is paid to the pressure-induced transit

A more exact method than hitherto available, based on lattice statics and quasi-harmonic lattice dynamics, is presented for the direct minimisation of the free energies of periodic solids with very large unit cells. This is achieved via the calculati
