Intermittent relaxation in hierarchical energy landscapes.
We numerically simulate a thermalization process in an energy landscape with hierarchically organized metastable states. The initial configuration is chosen to have a large energy excess relative to the thermal equilibrium value at the running temperature. We show that the initial energy surplus is dissipated in a series of intermittent bursts, or quakes, whose rate decreases as the inverse of ...
متن کاملStructural relaxation in Morse clusters: Energy landscapes
We perform a comprehensive survey of the potential energy landscapes of 13-atom Morse clusters, and describe how they can be characterized and visualized. Our aim is to detail how the global features of the funnel-like surface change with the range of the potential, and to relate these changes to the dynamics of structural relaxation. We find that the landscape becomes rougher and less steep as...
متن کاملExploring protein energy landscapes with hierarchical clustering.
In this work we present a new method for investigating local energy minima on a protein energy landscape. The CABS (CAlpha, CBeta and the center of mass of the Side chain) method was employed for generating protein models, but any other method could be used instead. Cα traces from an ensemble of models are hierarchical clustered with the HCPM (Hierarchical Clustering of Protein Models) method. ...
متن کاملProbabilistic Relaxation and Hierarchical Relaxation
Probabilistic relaxation has been shown to be a powerful method for extracting features from images [5, 6]. Because the ltering process is basically independent of the relaxation itself, probabilistic relaxation can be used to extract edges or ridges simply by choosing an edge lter or a line lter. In this report, we describe an hierarchical approach to probabilistic relaxation. There are two ma...
متن کاملFunnels in Energy Landscapes
Local minima and the saddle points separating them in the energy landscape are known to dominate the dynamics of biopolymer folding. Here we introduce a notion of a “folding funnel” that is concisely defined in terms of energy minima and saddle points, while at the same time conforming to a notion of a “folding funnel” as it is discussed in the protein folding literature. PACS. 87.10.+e General...
