Disaggregation under strong shearing force is simulated for an aggregating colloid based on a sticky particle model which can describe the disaggregating and aggregating kinetics, the deformation, and the rupture of clusters with a minimum number of parameters. For a 2-dimensional system, the viscos

The study of aggregation of colloidal particles involves assessment of the thermodynamics and kinetics of the process and the characteristics of the phase formed. In this article, recent contributions to the understanding of aggregation are discussed from two different perspectives: (1) developments
Extensive numerical simulations of diffusion-limited (DLCA) and reaction-limited (RLCA) colloidal aggregation in two dimensions were performed to elucidate the concentration dependence of the cluster fractal dimension and of the different average cluster sizes. Both on-lattice and off-lattice simula
