Complex fluids including particulate suspensions and polymeric liquids are widely used in many industrial applications, for example, semiconductors, displays, secondary batteries to list a few. In the manufacturing processes, the quality of the final products is related to the deformation and flow behavior of materials. Therefore, understanding them in the rheology aspect is required. In this talk, we present several examples for numerical studies of complex fluids, in particular, that regard the flow and assembly behavior in colloid and non-colloidal systems. We explore the relationship between rheological properties and the microstructure in particle suspensions. Also, we investigate the role of hydrodynamic interactions or frictions among particles from a theoretic point of view. Finally, we claim the novelty of mesoscale simulation schemes to study the rheology of complex fluids. |
