Classical dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) is one of the cornerstones of modern
statistical mechanics. It is an extension of the highly successful method of classical density …

This article reviews recent research on the collective dynamical behavior of colloids with
dipolar or multipolar interactions. Indeed, whereas equilibrium structures and static self …

Starting from the many-particle Smoluchowski equation, we derive a dynamical density
functional theory for Brownian particles with an arbitrary shape. Both passive and active (self …

Ongoing scientific interest is aimed at the properties and structure of electric double layers
(EDLs), which are crucial for capacitive energy storage, water treatment, and energy …

Active Brownian particles display self-propelled movement, which can be modelled as
arising from a one-body force. Although their interparticle interactions are purely repulsive …

We report Brownian dynamics (BD) simulation and theoretical results for a system of
spherical colloidal particles with permanent dipole moments in a rotating magnetic field …

Density functional theory (DFT) for hard bodies provides a theoretical description of the
effect of particle shape on inhomogeneous fluids. We present improvements of the DFT …

The freezing transition in a classical three-dimensional system of rounded hard cubes with
fixed, equal orientations is studied by computer simulation and fundamental-measure …

We review recent progress in the theoretical description of anisotropic hard colloidal
particles. The shapes considered range from rods and dumbbells to rounded cubes …

Over the last few decades, classical density-functional theory (DFT) and its dynamic
extensions (DDFTs) have become powerful tools in the study of colloidal fluids. Recently …
