Contents:
Force fields for biomembranes simulations / Alexander P. Lyubartsev, Alexander L. Rabinovich -- Water between membranes: structure and dynamics / Sotiris Samatas, Carles Calero, Fausto Martelli, and Giancarlo Franzese -- Simulation approaches to short-range interactions between lipid membranes / Matej Kanduc, Alexander Schlaich, Bartosz Kowalik, Amanuel Wolde-Kidan, Roland R. Netz, and Emanuel Schneck -- Free energy calculations of pore formation in lipid membranes / N. Awasthi and J.S. Hub -- Theories and algorithms for molecular permeation through membranes / Alfredo E. Cardenas and Ron Elber -- Free energy calculation of membrane translocation: what works when, and why? / Nihit Pokhrel and Lutz Maibaum -- Mesoscopic particle-based modeling of self-assembled lipid membranes / Mohamed Laradji and Maria Maddalena Sperotto -- Simulations of membranes containing general anesthetics / Pál Jedlovszky -- Cation-mediated nanodomain formation in mixed lipid bilayers / Sai J. Ganesan, Hongcheng Xu, Silvina Matysiak -- Nanoparticle-membrane interactions: surface effects / G. Rossi, S. Salassi, F. Simonelli, A. Bartocci, and L. Monticelli -- Molecular dynamics simulations of gram-negative bacterial membranes / Syma Khalid, Graham Saunders and Taylor Haynes -- Continuum elastic description of processes in membranes / Alexander Sodt.
Summary: "There has been a tremendous growth in the development of computational tools for addressing questions in membrane biophysics. This book showcases current methods for simulations of biological membranes, from atomistic to multiscale modeling approaches. It reflects the exciting advances in computational techniques that enable to perform simulations over longer accessible time and probe larger length scales. Each chapter addresses an important issue related to our understanding of biological membranes and simulation results will be connected to available experimental information"--
