Abstract
We examine a simple nonequil. mol.-dynamics (NEMD) technique for studying hard-spheroid fluids under shear flow. The method involves applying a thermostat which uses an anal. formula for the streaming angular velocity as a function of mol. orientation. Preliminary results indicate that this method is a significant improvement over the usual assumption of const. streaming angular velocity. We compare with the more sophisticated, and complicated, rotationally unbiased thermostat proposed by Travis, et al. [on SciFinder(R)]
