TY - BOOK AU - Sato, Akira TI - Modeling of magnetic particle suspensions for simulations SN - 9780367849276 U1 - 620.11297 PY - 2017/// CY - Boca Raton PB - CRC Press KW - Magnetic materials--Mathematical models KW - Technology & Engineering Mechanical KW - Science Solid State Physics N2 - "The main objective of the book is to highlight the modeling of magnetic particles with different shapes and magnetic properties, to provide graduate students and young researchers information on the theoretical aspects and actual techniques for the treatment of magnetic particles in particle-based simulations. In simulation, we focus on the Monte Carlo, molecular dynamics, Brownian dynamics, lattice Boltzmann and stochastic rotation dynamics (multi-particle collision dynamics) methods. The latter two simulation methods can simulate both the particle motion and the ambient flow field simultaneously. In general, specialized knowledge can only be obtained in an effective manner under the supervision of an expert. The present book is written to play such a role for readers who wish to develop the skill of modeling magnetic particles and develop a computer simulation program using their own ability. This book is therefore a self-learning book for graduate students and young researchers. Armed with this knowledge, readers are expected to be able to sufficiently enhance their skill for tackling any challenging problems they may encounter in future."--Provided by publisher ER -
