Computer Simulation Studies of Inhomogeneous Fluids: The Depletion Force and the Disjoining Pressure of Colloidal Physics

Investigations have been carried out via Monte Carlo simulation of simple, inhomogeneous fluids into two important quantities of colloidal systems; the depletion force and the disjoin'': ing pressure. Simulations of a hard-sphere solvent confined to the annular wedge formed between a spher...
