.. py:class:: MembraneThickness

   Observable for calculating membrane thickness from a trajectory.

   This observable uses the LiPyphilic package to assign leaflets and compute
   membrane thickness, so see its documentation for more details on the
   lipid_sel and thickness_sel arguments: https://lipyphilic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

   :param topology: MDAnalysis Universe topology for the system, should not
                    contain the trajectory data.
   :param lipid_sel: selection string for lipid tail atoms using MDAnalysis query
                     (e.g. "name GL1 GL2").
   :param thickness_sel: selection string for atoms to use in thickness
                         calculation (e.g. "name PO4").
