Book Chapter
Orsi, M. (2018). Molecular simulation of self-assembly. In H. Azevedo, & R. da Silva (Eds.), Self-Assembling Biomaterials (305-318). Elsevier

Molecular simulation is a powerful tool for studying self-assembly, as it can provide unprecedented access into a range of physical properties at the intra-, inter- and supra-molecular scales. The self-assembly of biological molecules, a ubiquitous p... Read More about Molecular simulation of self-assembly.
