What is RYUON?

RYUON is a Particle Simulation Suite.

My scientific interest is on "particles in a fluid" or between "discrete and continuous systems". RYU of RYU-ON has meanings of "grain" and "flow" in Japanese and it well fits my interest, the GAP between the two.

I am planning to release the following codes and data:

• Simulators
  • [stokes]Stokesian dynamics: massless particles in a viscous fluid
  • Fluidized Beds Simulator: heavy particles in a viscous fluid
    • Ichiki & Hayakawa, Phys. Rev. E 52,(1995) 658-670
    • Ichiki & Hayakawa, Phys. Rev. E 57,(1998) 1990-1996
• Libraries
  • [libstokes]library for Stokesian dynamics
    • Brady & Bossis, Annu.Rev.Fluid Mech. 1988, Vol.20 pp.111-157,
      Durlofsky & Brady, J.Fluid Mech. 1987, Vol.180 p.21,
      Brady, Phillips, Lester, & Bossis, J.Fluid Mech. 1988, Vol.195 pp.257-280.
    • Ichiki, J.Fluid Mech. 452 (2002) pp. 231-262.
  • [libiter]library of iterative solvers for the linear set of equations
    • Ichiki & Brady, Phys. Fluids 2001, Vol.13 pp.350-353
• Data and Details
  • [twobody] The exact solutions for two-body problems in Stokes flows
    • Jeffrey & Onishi, J.Fluid Mech. 1984, Vol.139 pp.261-290,
      Jeffrey, Phys. Fluids A 1992, Vol.4, pp.16-29,
      Jeffrey, Morris, Brady, Phys. Fluids A 1993, Vol.5, pp.2317-2325.
• Utilities: Analysis and Visualization
  • Molecular dynamics: utility for existing OpenSource Projects such as GROMACS and TINKER
    • Ichiki & Consta, J. Phys. Chem. B (2006) 110 pp.19168-19175
• Future Plans
  • Solver for General Many-Body Problems: including electrostatics, gravitational systems, elastisity, vortex dynamics, etc
  • FEM, BEM layer using the above.
