Foundations of Dissipative Particle Dynamics
arXiv:cond-mat/0002174 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.62.2140
Abstract
We derive a mesoscopic modeling and simulation technique that is very close to the technique known as dissipative particle dynamics. The model is derived from molecular dynamics by means of a systematic coarse-graining procedure. Thus the rules governing our new form of dissipative particle dynamics reflect the underlying molecular dynamics; in particular all the underlying conservation laws carry over from the microscopic to the mesoscopic descriptions. Whereas previously the dissipative particles were spheres of fixed size and mass, now they are defined as cells on a Voronoi lattice with variable masses and sizes. This Voronoi lattice arises naturally from the coarse-graining procedure which may be applied iteratively and thus represents a form of renormalisation-group mapping. It enables us to select any desired local scale for the mesoscopic description of a given problem. Indeed, the method may be used to deal with situations in which several different length scales are simultaneously present. Simulations carried out with the present scheme show good agreement with theoretical predictions for the equilibrium behavior.
