Summary We have developed an efficient simulation method applicable for colloidal dispersions in complex fluids (Ionic solution, liquid crystal, etc). So far: • Applied to neutral colloid dispersions (HI):sedimentation, coagulation, rheology, etc • Applied to charged colloid dispersions (HI+SCI):electrophoresis, crystallization, etc • All the single simulations were done within a few days on PC Future: • Free ware program (2005/12) • Big simulations on Earth Simulator (2005-)
