This thesis summarizes interrelated simulation studies of three different physical phenomena. The three topics are: simulation of work hardening of materials using dislocation dynamics, investigation of anomalous diffusion in supercooled liquids using molecular dynamics,and kinetic Monte-Carlo simulation of annealing of radiation damaged materials. All three topics require special algorithms in order to enable physically relevant simulations. The author's contributionconsists of development, implementation, and optimization of these algorithms, as well as interpretation of simulation results. / QC 20100805
