12Effect of pressure on fragility
It is usually observed that fragility decreases
with increasing pressure in the case of Van der
Waals liquids.
Van der Waals liquids
Effect of pressure on fragilty is often much
more complex for H-bonded than for Van der
Waals liquids.

23The Dynamic Liquid Lattice model of Pakula model
Cooperative rearrangement can be visualized as a
collective displacement, involving more than
two molecules, along the trajectory to form a
closed loop
Unsuccessful attemt when neighboring elements
try to move in opposite dire- ction
Consequently, the sum of the displacements of
all molecules involved in the process is zero
Unsuccessful attempt because the element in the
center will not be replaced by any of the
neighbors
