Density-functional theory for complex fluids.
Density-functional theory (DFT) and its variations provide a fruitful approach to the computational modeling of the microscopic structures and phase behavior of soft-condensed matter. The methodology takes deep root in quantum mechanics but shares a mathematical similarity with a number of classical approaches in statistical mechanics. This review discusses different strategies commonly used to...
متن کاملDensity functional theory for inhomogeneous mixtures of polymeric fluids
A new density functional theory is developed for inhomogeneous mixtures of polymeric fluids by combining Rosenfeld’s fundamental-measure theory for excluded volume effects with Wertheim’s first-order thermodynamic perturbation theory for chain connectivity. With no adjustable parameters, theoretical predictions are in excellent agreement with Monte Carlo simulation data for the density distribu...
متن کاملDensity functional theory for the freezing of soft-core fluids.
We present a simple density functional theory for the solid phases of systems of particles interacting via soft-core potentials. In particular, we apply the theory to particles interacting via repulsive point Yukawa and Gaussian pair potentials. We find qualitative agreement with the established phase diagrams for these systems. The theory is able to account for the bcc-fcc solid transitions of...
متن کاملDensity functional theory of charged, hard-sphere fluids.
An approximate electrostatic (ES) excess free energy functional for charged, hard sphere fluids is presented. This functional is designed for systems with large density variations, but may also be applied to systems without such variations. Based on the Rosenfeld method of perturbation about a bulk (homogeneous) reference fluid [Y. Rosenfeld, J. Chem. Phys. 98, 8126 (1993)], the new ES function...
متن کاملTime-dependent density functional theory of classical fluids.
We establish a rigorous time-dependent density functional theory of classical fluids for a wide class of microscopic dynamics. We obtain a stationary action principle for the density. We further introduce an exact practical scheme, to obtain hydrodynamical effects in density evolution, that is analogous to the Kohn-Sham theory of quantum systems. Finally, we show how the current theory recovers...
