Modelling of micro-rheological behaviour of fluids with Dissipative Particle Dynamics

摘要

On an atomistic level, Molecular Dynamics (MD) represents an attractive simulation technique for the study of hydrodynamic phenomena. Already for the modelling of microfluidic systems with dimensions in the range of several tens of micrometers, as encountered e.g. in Micro Powder Injection Moulding (Micro-PIM), we need to perform a coarse graining of the molecular model.
