Summary

Many researchers have observed phase changing mechanism of ice to water or water to ice using molecular simulation, especially the molecular dynamics method. The authors investigated 70 studies on the subject which were divided into three categories, i.e. melting, solidification, and interface. Melting simulations have been performed actively with several water models. Solidifying simulations were performed rarely, because the mechanism of supercooling is difficult to model. Also, the authors performed research on molecular correlation of interface in which ice crystal growth was observed. Finally, some new fields with upgraded computational environment were introduced.
