Free self-assembly of spontaneously chiral, supramolecular structures

In this thesis, Molecular Dynamics simulations are used to investigate the free selfassembly of supramolecular, chiral structures. The main coarse-grained model used for this is the disc-shaped variant of the Gay-Berne potential. This is parameterised to favour face-face configurations, consistent w...
