An electromechanical liquid crystal model of vesicles

TL;DR: In this paper, an electromechanical liquid crystal model is developed for characterizing the equilibrium morphology of a lipid vesicle under coupled mechanical and electrical fields, which incorporates the effects of elastic bending, osmotic pressure, surface tension, Maxwell pressure, as well as flexoelectric and dielectric properties of the lipid membrane.

Molecular packing in 1-hexanol–DMPC bilayers studied by molecular dynamics simulation

TL;DR: The structure and molecular packing density of a "mismatched" solute, 1-hexanol, in lipid membranes of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) was studied by molecular dynamics simulations and it was found that the average location and orientation of the hexanol molecules matched earlier experimental data on comparable systems.

Utilization of advanced analysis methods in UMTS networks

TL;DR: The scope of this paper is to introduce new analysis and visualization methods for WCDMA cellular networks based on the self-organizing map (SOM) method, but also other neural and statistical methods are equally applicable.

Simulations of a single membrane between two walls using a Monte Carlo method

TL;DR: In this article, the Fourier Monte Carlo (FMC) method is applied to simulate a single membrane between two hard walls, which models a stack of lipid bilayer membranes with nonharmonic interactions.
