RNEMD is preferable in many ways to the forward NEMD methods\cite{ISI:A1988Q205300014} because it imposes what is typically difficult to measure |
104 |
|
(a flux or stress) and it is typically much easier to compute momentum |
105 |
|
gradients or strains (the response). For similar reasons, RNEMD is |
106 |
|
also preferable to slowly-converging equilibrium methods for measuring |
115 |

typically samples from the same manifold of states in the |
116 |
|
microcanonical ensemble. |
