Abstract

Dissipative particle dynamics is essentially a coarse-grained molecular dynamic simulation technique that captures the essential physics with considerably less computer effort. We have given a sound theoretical foundation to the technique with respect to the equilibrium and hydrodynamic properties. In this paper we further explore the connection of the model parameters of DPD with the underlying microscopic dynamics for the case of a simple model of a solid. This provides some insight into the difficulties of interpretation of DPD simulations.
