Asymmetric Lipid Membranes under Shear Flows: A Dissipative Particle Dynamics Study

We investigate the phase behavior of the asymmetric lipid membranes under shear flows, using the dissipative particle dynamics simulation. Two cases, the weak and strong shear flows, are considered for the asymmetric lipid microstructures. Three typical asymmetric structures, the membranes, tubes, a...
