Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) is a simulation method at mesoscopic sca1es that bridges the gap between molecular dynamics and continuum hydrodynamics. It call simulate efficiently complex liquids and dense suspensions using only a few thousands of virtual particle s and at speed-up factors of more than one hundred thousands compared to Molecular Dynamics. Lowe's approach provides a powerful alternative to the usual DPD integrating schemes. Here, we demonstrate the details and potential of Lowe's scheme. We compute viscosity, , diffusivity and Schmidt number values and we present comparison of wormlike chain model s under shear with experimental and Brownian I Dynamics results for A-phage DNA.
