| dc.description.abstract | This dissertation aims at advancing the capability of hybrid particle-field simulations of representing various physical phenomena relevant to biological systems. While hybrid particle-field simulations are computationally efficient and well adapted for studying mesoscale systems with molecular resolution, this approach has so far predominantly been applied to simple polymers. The computational investigation of systems of higher complexity, such as DNA and proteins, requires development of new models and an extension of the hybrid particle-field methodology. To this end, six research papers are presented. The main research output of these papers consists in both new methods for representing electrostatics and constant-pressure conditions, and new models for proteins and charged lipids within the hybrid particle-field formalism. The work contained in this thesis thus provides key steps towards large-scale realistic representations of biological systems | en_US |
