Second order front tracking algorithm for Stefan problem on a regular grid

Robert D. Groot

A brief review of the Stefan problem of solidification from a mixture, and its main numerical solution methods is given. Simulation of this problem in 2D or 3D is most practically…

Mesoscale simulation of semiflexible chains. I. Endpoint distribution and chain dynamics

Robert D. Groot

The endpoint distribution and dynamics of semiflexible fibers is studied by numerical simulation. A brief overview is given over the analytical theory of flexible and semiflexible…

Mesoscale simulation of semiflexible chains. II. Evolution dynamics and stability of fiber bundle networks

Robert D. Groot

Network formation of associative semiflexible fibers and mixtures of fibers and colloidal particles is simulated for the Johnson-Kendall-Roberts (JKR) model of elastic contacts, an…

How to impose stick boundary conditions in coarse-grained hydrodynamics of Brownian colloids and semi-flexible fiber rheology

Robert D. Groot

Long-range hydrodynamics between colloidal particles or fibers is modelled by the Fluid Particle Model. Two methods are considered to impose the fluid boundary conditions at colloi…

Close packing density and fracture strength of adsorbed polydisperse particle layers

Robert D. Groot, Simeon D. Stoyanov

The close packing density of log-normal and bimodal distributed, surface-adsorbed particles or discs in 2D is studied by numerical simulation. For small spread in particle size, th…

Equation of state of surface-adsorbing colloids

Robert D. Groot, Simeon D. Stoyanov

We have developed a simulation model to describe particle adsorption to and desorption from liquid interfaces. Using this model we formulate a closed interfacial equation of state…
