Distinguished Lecture: Molecular Modelling and Simulation by Keith Gubbins

19 May 2023 11:00-12:00, Edinburgh, United Kingdom


Introduction
Keith Gubbins, one of the world’s most accomplished and celebrated chemical engineers, is giving a Distinguished Lecture on Molecular Modeling and Simulation: Their Role in Applied Sciences and Engineering.

Professor Gubbins is the W.H. Clark Distinguished University Professor Emeritus of Chemical Engineering at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, and is a member of the US National Academy of Engineering, which advises the federal government and promotes the engineering profession.

During his prolific research career, Professor Gubbins has made seminal contributions in molecular theory and has pioneered the use of these to solve outstanding problems in chemical engineering.

In his lecture, he will discuss different methods of molecular theory and modelling, including their basis, areas of application and limitations, including how these methods are applied to problems relevant to the oil and gas, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.

He will focus on the molecular simulation method known as the Monte Carlo simulation and on molecular dynamics simulation – tools used to model the behaviour of molecules which solve the equations of statistical mechanics numerically and can be applied to complex systems of industrial interest.
