Approximating Surface Area of Fluctuating Lipid Leaflets Using Weighted Grid Tessellation
The surface area per lipid is an important quantity useful in characterizing lipid bilayer structure and dynamics. However, simply dividing the flat surface area covered by the number of lipids does not give a sufficient characterization of surface dynamics in cases where parts of the lipid leaflets...
