Mesh helfrich energy - Githubissues

SchoeniPhlippsn commented 1 month ago

Description

This adds a Helfrich potential which can be applied to the mesh data structure.

Motivation and context

This bending rigidity formulated by Helfrich allows for applying a bending modulus that closely behaves like a lipid mono-/bi-layer membrane represented by a particle mesh.

How has this been tested?

I added pytests and used this potential in my current studies.

This is the second bending rigidity. I decided to split them into two PRs because this potential is still very slow when used in parallel on GPU.
