Calculating the Bending Modulus for Multicomponent Lipid Membranes in Different Thermodynamic Phases

[Image: see text] We establish a computational approach to extract the bending modulus, K(C), for lipid membranes from relatively small-scale molecular simulations. Fluctuations in the splay of individual pairs of lipids faithfully inform on K(C) in multicomponent membranes over a large range of rig...
