Description
In this book the author has tried to apply "a little imagination and thinking" to modelling dynamical phenomena from a classical atomic and molecular point of view. Nonlinearity is emphasized, as are phenomena which are elusive from the continuum mechanics point of view. FORTRAN programs are provided in the Appendices.

Introduction: quasimolecular modelling - what it is and what it is not. Quanititative modelling: falling water drops; colliding microdrops of water; crack development in a stressed copper plate; stress wave propagation in slender bars; melting points of atomic solids. Qualitative modelling: biological self reorganization; cavity flow; turbulent and nonturbulent vortices; vortex street modelling; porous flow; Q modelling combustion. conservative and covariant modelling: conservative Q modelling; relativistic motion.
