Shear-induced microstructures and their corresponding dynamic processes are investigated for phospholipid cylinders in aqueous solution by dissipative particle dynamic simulation. Various phospholipid cylinders with cross-sections, which are formed under shear-free flow, are selected to examine the effects of shear flow on their structures and dynamic processes. Shear flow induces the transition from cylinders into vesicles at weak rate and the transition into vesicle-lamella mixtures with incre ...[more]
