I present a dissertation concerning the structural properties and |
| 56 |
+ |
phase behavior of lipid membranes. At first, I investigated the system |
| 57 |
+ |
by applying the Monte Carlo simulations on a simple dipolar membrane |
| 58 |
+ |
model. Secondly, to obtain the dynamics properties of the ripple phase |
| 59 |
+ |
of lipid membranes, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to a |
| 60 |
+ |
more realistic molecular lipid model. At last, an algorithm of |
| 61 |
+ |
Langevin dynamics was developed to inquire into the ripple phase in |
| 62 |
+ |
the implicit solvent environment by working with Teng Lin. |
