The field of viscous liquid and glassy solid dynamics is reviewed by a process of posing the
key questions that need to be answered, and then providing the best answers available to …

In this article, the effects of size and confinement at the nanometre size scale on both the
melting temperature, T m, and the glass transition temperature, T g, are reviewed. Although …

It is widely known that the low-temperature physical properties, such as the heat capacity
and thermal conductivity, of a disordered amorphous solid are markedly different from those …

This book gives a pedagogical introduction to the physics of amorphous solids and related
disordered condensed matter systems. Important concepts from statistical mechanics such …

In this review a systematic analysis of the potential energy landscape (PEL) of glass-forming
systems is presented. Starting from the thermodynamics, the route towards the dynamics is …

The use of molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the properties of hydration water
around proteins is outlined. A variety of structural and dynamical properties of the protein …

We survey results of computer simulations for the structure and dynamics of supercooled
polymer melts and films. Our survey is mainly concerned with features of a coarse grained …

Dynamic heterogeneity is an active field of glass-transition research. The length scale of this
heterogeneity is called the characteristic length. It can be calculated from complex heat …

We present the results of a large scale molecular dynamics computer simulation in which we
investigated the static and dynamic properties of a silica melt in the temperature range in …

After a brief introduction to the dynamics of supercooled liquids, we discuss some of the
advantages and drawbacks of computer simulations of such systems. Subsequently we …
