Simulation of colloidal suspension systems

The research work is focused on the development of a simulation platform for colloidal suspension. Based on discrete element method (DEM), the model developed takes into account the crucial interactions, i.e. the electrostatic repulsion, van der Waals attraction, Brownian force, hydration effects an...
