We study a unilateral equilibrium problem for the energy functional of a lipid tubule subject to an external field. These tubules, which constitute many biological systems, may form assemblies when they are brought in contact, and so made to adhere to one another along at interstices. The contact energy is taken to be proportional to the area of contact through a constant, which is called the adhesion potential. This competes against the external field in determining the stability of patterns with flat interstices. Though the equilibrium problem is highly nonlinear, we determine explicitly the stability diagram for the adhesion between tubules. We conclude that the higher the field, the lower the adhesion potential needed to make at interstices energetically favourable, though its critical value depends also on the surface tension of the interface between the tubules and the isotropic fluid around them.

The equilibrium problem for the elastic Timoshenko type plate with a crack is considered. On the crack faces, the non-penetration conditions of inequality type (Signorini type conditions) are given. It is proved that there exist invariant integrals that are equal to the derivative of the energy functional with respect to perturbation parameter.

This work describes a general energy functional formulation of a polarizable embedding QM/MM scheme, as well as an implementation where a real-space Grid-based Projector Augmented Wave (GPAW) DFT method is coupled with a potential function for H<sub>2</sub>O based on a Single Center Multipole Expansion (SCME) of the electrostatics, including anisotropic dipole and quadrupole polarizability.
