History of KAPSEL

  • [1* Aug 2009] KAPSEL-2 released. List of changes from the previous version.
    • Thermal fluctuation is implemented for particle's Brown motion.
    • Steady and oscillatory shear flow, which is compatible with periodic boundary condition, is implemented.
    • Addition to spherical particles, bead-spring chains are selectable.
    • Computational efficiency is much improved (by a factor of 2 or more comparing to KAPSEL-1).
    • Compatible with Intel C++ compiler. One can use MKL and OpenMP to get higher performance.
    • Bug fix.
    • The linked cell method is implemented for efficiently calculating particle interactions.
    • Many useful examples are available at KAPSEL Homepage.
    • Pre-built binary distributions are available at KAPSEL Homepage.
  • [31 May 2006] KAPSEL released.
    • One can perform very reliable DNS simulations for electrophoresis of spherical particles.
