New parametrization method for dissipative particle dynamics

Parametrization of Chain Molecules in Dissipative Particle Dynamics.

This paper presents a consistent strategy for parametrization of coarse-grained models of chain molecules in dissipative particle dynamics (DPD), where the soft-core DPD interaction parameters are fitted to the activities in solutions of reference compounds that represent different fragments of target molecules. The intercomponent parameters are matched either to the infinite dilution activity ...

Modelling thrombosis using dissipative particle dynamics method.

AIM Arterial occlusion is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease. The main mechanism causing vessel occlusion is thrombus formation, which may be initiated by the activation of platelets. The focus of this study is on the mechanical aspects of platelet-mediated thrombosis which includes the motion, collision, adhesion and aggregation of activated platelets in the blood. A review of the exist...

Splitting for Dissipative Particle Dynamics

We study numerical methods for dissipative particle dynamics, a system of stochastic differential equations for simulating particles interacting pairwise according to a soft potential at constant temperature where the total momentum is conserved. We introduce splitting methods and examine the behavior of these methods experimentally. The performance of the methods, particularly temperature cont...

A splitting scheme for highly dissipative Smoothed Dissipative Particle Dynamics

Smoothed Dissipative Particle Dynamics (SDPD) is a novel coarse-grained mesoscopic method for the simulation of complex fluids representing the effect of microscopic scales by a stochastic process. It has some advantages over more traditional particle-based methods but, on the other hand, shares some problems common to particle-based simulations of microfluidic systems. In particular a prohibit...
