Some drug molecules may spend appreciable amountsd of time in the |

|
| 312 |
Replace any charged interactions of the system with dipoles. |
| 313 |
|
| 314 |
\begin{itemize} |
| 315 |
\item Allows for computational scaling approximately by $N$ for |
| 316 |
dipole-dipole interactions. |
| 317 |
\begin{itemize} |
| 318 |
\item Relatively short range, $\frac{1}{r^3}$, interactions allow |
| 319 |
the application of computational simplification algorithms, |
| 320 |
ie. neighbor lists. |
| 321 |
\end{itemize} |
| 322 |
|
| 323 |
\item In contrast, the Ewald sum, needed for calculating charge - charge |
| 324 |
interactions, scales approximately by $N \log N$. |

\begin{slide}{The Lipid Model} |
| 418 |
|
| 419 |
To eliminate the need for charge-charge interactions, our lipid model |
| 420 |
replaces the phospholipid head group with a single large head group |
| 421 |
atom containing a freely oriented dipole. The tail is a simple alkane chain. |
| 422 |
|
| 423 |
Lipid Properties: |
| 424 |
\begin{itemize} |
| 425 |
\item $|\vec{\mu}_{\text{HEAD}}| = 20.6\ \text{D}$ |
| 426 |
\item $m_{\text{HEAD}} = 196\ \text{amu}$ |
| 427 |
\item Tail atoms are unified CH, $\text{CH}_2$, and $\text{CH}_3$ atoms |
| 428 |
\begin{itemize} |

\item Alkane forcefield parameters taken from TraPPE |
