abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE) is a classic implicit continuum model to predict
the electrostatic potentials of a solvated biomolecule. In this paper, we present a finite volume
element method specific to the elliptic interface problem with a non-homogeneous flux condition
for solving PBE and provide a follow-up analysis. The new PBE solver is fulfilled through both
Fortran and Python, afterwards the local Poisson test model coupled with an analytical solution
is adopted to well validate the program. Lastly, an application of the new solver to the prediction
of solvation free energies of the proteins is made.<br/></p>},
