Dissipative self-assembly, a ubiquitous type of self-assembly in biological systems, has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Inspired by nature, dissipative self-assembly driven by periodic external fields is often adopted to obtain controlled out-of-equilibrium steady structures and materials in experiments. Although the phenomena in dissipative self-assembly have been discovered in the past few decades, fundamental methods to describe dynamical self-assembly processes and responsiveness are still lacking. Here, we develop a theoretical framework based on the equations of motion and Floquet theory to reveal the dynamic behavior changing with frequency in the periodic external field driven self-assembly. Using the dissipative particle dynamics simulation method, we then construct a block copolymer model that can self-assemble in dilute solution to confirm the conclusions from the theory. Our theoretical framework facilitates the understanding of dynamic behavior in a periodically driven process and provides the theoretical guidance for designing the dissipative conditions.
