Monte Carlo Vertex Swap

Definition

Name	Mesh>MonteCarlo>vertex>swap
Type	Monte Carlo
Defined in	Vertices

Monte Carlo vertex swap integrator randomly picks two vertices and swaps their type ID. At each runtime, \(N_v\) swaps are attempted. This is useful for simulations of multicomponent system where components can mix.

Python calling

add .. code-block:: python

evolver.add_integrator(“Mesh>MonteCarlo>vertex>swap”, {“every step”: “1”})

evolveMC(MCS) .. code-block:: python

evolver.evolveMC(1000)

set Set property separately. .. code-block:: python

evolver.set(“Mesh>MonteCarlo>vertex>swap”, {“every step”: “5”})

delete .. code-block:: python

evolver.delete_integrator(“Mesh>MonteCarlo>vertex>swap”)
