Dissipative particle dynamics simulation of critical pore size in a lipid bilayer membrane

We investigate with computer simulations the critical radius of pores in a lipid bilayer membrane. Ilton et al. (Ilton et al. 2016 Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 257801 (doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.117.257801)) recently showed that nucleated pores in a homopolymer film can increase or decrease in size, depending...
