Build Status

RMPCDMD is a collection of Fortran modules and programs for the mesoscopic modeling of chemically active fluids with embedded colloids.

Status

RMPCDMD is ready to use for chemically powered dimer nanomotor simulations. A former version of this code, still available in the branches trs and trs_two_prod, was used to obtain the results presented in P. de Buyl and R. Kapral Nanoscale 5, 1337-1344 (2013) and P. de Buyl, A. S. Mikhailov and R. Kapral EPL 103, 60009 (2013).

The current version has been totally refactored to remove the use of global variables, enable testing and enable OpenMP multithreaded operation.

Citation

RMPCDMD is presented in the article RMPCDMD: Simulations of colloids with coarse-grained hydrodynamics, chemical reactions and external fields, Journal of Open Research Software (JORS) 5, 3 (2017) doi - arXiv:1608.04904
