Confined Lennard-Jones System Model Description

This little application simulates an idealized statistical mechanics model designed to enable you to study a two-dimensional system of particles confined to a box with a constant temperature thermal reservoir at one end and a movable piston at the other. Particles in this model have unit mass and interact through pairwise Lennard-Jones forces and hard-wall contact forces. Slow-moving particles are color-coded as blue and fast particles are color-coded as yellow. The model computes and plots the evolution of the total energy E, the kinetic energy per particle K, the pressure P, and the volume V. The model also displays histograms and mean values of these quantities.
