colleagues, I developed a new molecular dynamics framework capable |
| 69 |
|
of performing simulation on systems with orientational degrees of |
| 70 |
|
freedom in a variety of ensembles. Using this new package, I studied |
| 71 |
< |
the structure, the dynamics and transport properties of the |
| 72 |
< |
biological membranes as well as the the phase behavior of banana |
| 73 |
< |
shaped liquid crystals. A new Langevin dynamics algorithm for |
| 74 |
< |
arbitrary rigid particles is proposed to mimic solvent effects which |
| 75 |
< |
may eventually expand the time scale of the simulation. |
