Abstract Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a relatively new meshless numerical
approach which has attracted significant attention in the last two decades. Compared with …

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is one of the most efficient mesoscale coarse-grained
methodologies for modeling soft matter systems. Here, we comprehensively review the …

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) belongs to a class of models and computational
algorithms developed to address mesoscale problems in complex fluids and soft matter in …

We consider the Brownian motion of a particle and present a tutorial review over the last 111
years since Einstein's paper in 1905. We describe Einstein's model, Langevin's model and …

Polymeric materials display distinguished characteristics which stem from the interplay of
phenomena at various length and time scales. Further development of polymer systems …

A nanocarrier drug delivery system, effectively assisting to improve the solubility,
bioavailability, and targeting of drugs in the human body, is a crucial means for treating …

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is an effective Lagrangian method for modeling
complex fluids in the mesoscale regime but so far it has been limited to relatively simple …

Shear thinning—a reduction in suspension viscosity with increasing shear rates—is
understood to arise in colloidal systems from a decrease in the relative contribution of …

In biofluid flow systems, often the flow problems of fluids of complex structures, such as the
flow of red blood cells (RBCs) through complex capillary vessels, need to be considered …

Unresolved and semi-resolved CFD-DEM coupling are frequently used for modeling
particulate flows due to their high efficiency and satisfying accuracy. The grid size (in …
