Abstract / Description of output

In this paper we describe the implementation of Lees-Edwards sliding periodic boundary conditions used to perform simulations of sheared binary fluids. In conjunction with domain decomposition and parallelism using the message passing interface, we are able to perform shear simulations of significant size and duration. We discuss the scaling and performance of these large calculations on the IBM Blue Gene/L architecture.
