Dissipative Particle Dynamics and Other Fluid Particle Models

Nanoscale Effects in Fluid Systems

  • Chapter
Micromechanics and Nanoscale Effects

Part of the book series: ICASE/LaRC Interdisciplinary Series in Science and Engineering ((ICAS,volume 10))

Abstract

Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) is a particle model that allows to simulate complex fluids at mesoscopic scales. Since its introduction a decade ago it has been applied to a large variety of different complex fluid systems. At the same time, generalizations of the model have been introduced in order to refine the concept of dissipative particle. Here, I offer my personal view about the status of DPD as a model for simulating complex fluids, review part of the literature on applications, and sketch some lines for future research.
