Abstract: | A novel mesoscopic simulation method is adopted to study the ordered packing of the anisotropic disklike particles with a soft repulsive interaction, which possesses a modified anisotropic conservative force type used in dissipative particle dynamics. We examine the influence of the shape of the particles, the angular width of the repulsion, and the strength of the repulsion on the packing structures. Specifically, an ordered hexagonal columnar structure is obtained in our simulations. Our study demonstrates that an anisotropic repulsive potential between soft discoidal particles is sufficient to produce a relatively ordered hexagonal columnar structure. |
