Abstract :
Dissipative particle dynamics is an efficient and accurate mesoscale simulation method that bridges the gap between molecular dynamics and continuum hydrodynamics. Using time-staggered algorithms, it can simulate complex liquids and dense suspensions more than 100,000 faster than molecular dynamics.
