| Popis: |
We develop an algorithm suitable for parallel molecular dynamics simulations in $d$ spatial dimensions and describe its implementation in C++. All routines work in arbitrary $d$; the maximum simulated $d$ is limited only by available computing resources. These routines include several that are particularly useful for studies of the glass/jamming transition, such as SWAP Monte Carlo and FIRE energy minimization. Scaling of simulation runtimes with the number of particles $N$ and number of simulation threads $n_{\rm threads}$ is comparable to popular MD codes such as LAMMPS. The efficient parallel implementation allows simulation of systems that are much larger than those employed in previous high-dimensional glass-transition studies. As a demonstration of the code's capabilities, we show that supercooled $d = 6$ liquids can possess dynamics that are substantially more heterogeneous and experience a breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation that is substantially stronger than previously reported, owing at least in part to the much smaller system sizes employed in earlier simulations. |
