This project aimed to calculate the force between two inclusions on a lipid bilayer with respect to the distance separating them in order to further understand the biological processes that these forces affect. A cell surface was modelled with two holes in it on a computer. The energy of the surface was minimized and then calculated for multiple separations. The force between the two inclusions was then calculated with a numerical derivative.
