In this work, we used this model together with WangLandau (WL) sampling and appropriate Monte Carlo trial moves to determine the density of states and thermodynamics for two cases: Protein adsorption and protein confinement, in the vicinity of attractive surfaces. The influence on the adsorption behavior of surface attractive strength in the adsorption case and volumetric spaces in the confinement case will be discussed. © 2012 World Scientific Publishing Company.Mahidol UniversityComputer ScienceMathematicsPhysics and AstronomyConference PaperSCOPUS10.1142/S0129183112400086
