摘要
This work analyzes the stability and accuracy of multistep methods, either for serial or parallel calculations, applied to molecular dynamics simulations. Numerical testing is made by evaluating the equilibrium configurations of mono-elemental crystalline lattices of metallic and semiconducting type (Ag and Si, respectively) and of a cubic CuY compound.
