MercuryDPM Reference Manual

This is the reference manual of MercuryDPM, a free, open source software package for performing discrete particle simulations. The aim of this manual is to provide all necessary information to guide a new user through the installation process, teach the user how to run, visualisa and analyse MercuryDPM simulations, and how to create new MercuryDPM codes to model a system of your choice.

The manual is split into three parts:

• Installing MercuryDPM
• Getting started
• Fun with MercuryDPM (Tutorials)
• Write Your Own Code
• Coarse graining: From discrete particles to continuum fields
• Visualising Your Results
• Coupling with oomph-lib
• Guidelines for Users and Developers
• Contact Models in MercuryDPM
• For Developers
