Monte Carlo Demonstration of Solid-State Diffusion in an Electric Field.

Peer reviewed

Murch, G. E. – American Journal of Physics, 1979

Describes the phenomenological and microscopic aspects of solid-state diffusion in an electric field and presents a Monte Carlo method which is used to stimulate an atomistic model of diffusion in an electric field. The Nernst-Einstein relation is also discussed. (HM)

Deterministic Simulation versus Probabilistic Simulation Approaches to Scientific Educational Problem Solving.

Peer reviewed

Danesh, Iraj – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1989

Describes the deterministic simulation (a given input always leads to the same output) and probabilistic simulation (new states are subject to predefined laws of chance). Provides examples of the application of the two simulations with mathematical expressions and PASCAL program. Lists seven references. (YP)
