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.

Audience
Students and researchers in departments of chemistry, physics, applied physics, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering. Colloid and interface scientists in academia and industry.
