The Smoothed Dissipative Particle Dynamics (SDPD) was introduced by Español and Revenga as a generalization of the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulation method for mesoscale. In SDPD, a discretization element (particle) represents a packet of fluid whose specific size determines the level of thermal fluctuations in the hydrodynamic variables. In this work it is shown that SDPD can correctly represent the static and dynamic behavior of DNA chains in flow. As an application, the dynamics of the wall-tethered DNA in shear flow is considered.
