% This is a poster template with latex macros and using

% on making postscript, resizeing, and printing the poster file
% please see web site 
% http://www.phys.ufl.edu/~pjh/posters/poster_howto_UF.html
% 
% N.B. This format is cribbed from one obtained from the University
% of Karlsruhe, so some macro names and parameters are in German
% Here is a short glosary:
% Breite: width
% Hoehe: height
% Spalte: column
% Kasten: box
%
% All style files necessary are part of standard TeTeX distribution
% On the UF unix cluster you should not need to import these files
% specially, as they will be automatically located.  If you
% run on a local PC however, you will need to locate these files.
% At UF try /usr/local/TeTeX...
% 
% P. Hirschfeld 2/11/00
%
% The recommended procedure is to first generate a ``Special Format" size poster
% file, which is relatively easy to manipulate and view.  It can be
% resized later to A0 (900 x 1100 mm) full poster size, or A4 or Letter size
% as desired (see web site).  Note the large format printers currently
% in use at UF's OIR have max width of about 90cm or 3 ft., but the paper
% comes in rolls so the length is variable.  See below the specifications
% for width and height of various formats.  Default in the template is
% ``Special Format",  with 4 columns.

A mesoscale model for phospholipids has been developed for molecular
dynamics simulations of lipid bilayers. The model makes several
simplifications to both the water and the phospholipids to reduce the
computational cost of each force evaluation. The water was represented
by the soft sticky dipole model of Ichiye \emph{et
al}.\cite{liu96:new_model,liu96:monte_carlo,chandra99:ssd_md} The
simplifications to the phospholipids included the reduction of atoms
in the tail groups to beads representing $\mbox{CH}_{2}$ and
$\mbox{CH}_{3}$ unified atoms, and the replacement of the head groups
with a single point mass containing a centrally located dipole. The
model was then used to simulate micelle and bilayer formation from a
configuration of randomly placed phospholipids which was simulated for
times in excess of 30 nanoseconds.
