Abstract

ESPResSo is an open-source simulation package for coarse-grained models. The primary simulation approaches are molecular dynamics as well as lattice-Boltzmann hydrodynamics. The package is used in a wide variety of research fields including soft matter, statistical and biological physics and process engineering. Examples for its use include electrophoresis of polymers and colloids, phase equilibria in polyelectrolytes and gels, magnetic soft matter, dynamics of self-propelled bacteria, and agglomeration of soot particles in combustion exhausts.
