  Description:     This title provides an introduction to molecular-microsimulation methods for colloidal dispersions and is suitable for both self-study and reference. It provides the reader with a systematic understanding of the theoretical background to simulation methods, together with a wide range of practical skills for developing computational programs. Exercises are included at the end of each chapter to further assist the understanding of the subjects addressed.
   
  Contents List:     What kinds of molecular-microsimulation methods are useful for colloidal dispersions?; Statistical ensembles; Monte Carlo methods; Governing equations of the flow field; Theory for the motion of a single particle and two particles in a fluid; The approximation of multi-body hydrodynamic interactions among particles in a dense colloidal dispersion; Molecular dynamics methods for a dilute colloidal dispersion; Stokesian dynamics methods; Brownian dynamics methods; Typical properties of colloidal dispersions calculable by molecular-microsimulations; The methodology of simulations; Some examples of microsimulations; Higher order approximations of multi-body hydrodynamic interactions; Other microsimulation methods; Theoretical analysis of the orientational distribution of spherocylinder particles with Brownian motion.
