Content

This lecture teaches classical (non-quantum-mechanical) modeling and computer simulation of macromolecules.
In more detail, it covers:
  • Empirical energy function
  • Exploring the energy function: minimization, finding saddle points, vibrational analysis
  • Algorithms and data structures: periodic boundary conditions, cutoff, efficient neighbor search
  • Long-ranged interactions: coulomb sum, convergence, Poisson equation, Ewald summation, Particle-Mesh methods
  • Solvation methods: Explicit and implicit solvation
  • Dynamics: Integrators, discretization errors
