“…Although in principle one might wish to use molecular dynamics to simulate the interactions in these systems in full molecular detail, in practice such an approach is computationally overbearing and will remain so for the foreseeable future given the state of today's technology. Moreover, some of the most important situations demanding attention involve the coupling of self-assembly with hydrodynamics 12 . Their complexity is the result of the interplay between microscopic interactions and mesoscale hydrodynamic effects.…”

Simulation of Self-Reproducing Micelles Using a Lattice-Gas Automaton

We simulate self-reproducing micellar systems using a recently introduced lattice-gas automaton 1 . This dynamical model correctly describes the equilibrium and non-equilibrium properties of mixtures of oil, water and surfactants. The simulations reported here mimic the experiments of Luisi et al. 2 in which caprylate micelles are formed by alkaline hydrolysis of immiscible ethyl caprylate ester. As in the laboratory experiments, we find an extended induction period during which the concentration of micelles remains small; thereafter the ester is consumed very rapidly with concomitant production of micelles.
