NMscatt: a program for calculating inelastic scattering from large biomolecular systems using classical force-field simulations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computational tools for normal mode analysis, which are widely used in physics and materials science problems, are designed here in a single package called NMscatt (Normal Modes & scattering) that allows arbitrarily large systems to be handled. The package allows inelastic neutron and X-ray scattering observables to be calculated, allowing comparison with experimental data produced at large scale facilities. Various simplification schemes are presented for analysing displacement vectors, which are otherwise too complicated to understand in very large systems.

Classical wavelet systems over finite fields
This article presents an analytic approach to study admissibility conditions related to classical full wavelet systems over finite fields using tools from computational harmonic analysis and theoretical linear algebra. It is shown that for a large class of non-zero window signals (wavelets), the generated classical full wavelet systems constitute a frame whose canonical dual are classical full ...
متن کاملNORMAL FORM SOLUTION OF REDUCED ORDER OSCILLATING SYSTEMS
This paper describes a preliminary investigation into the use of normal form theory for modelling large non-linear dynamical systems. Limit cycle oscillations are determined for simple two-degree-of-freedom double pendulum systems. The double pendulum system is reduced into its centre manifold before computing normal forms. Normal forms are obtained using a period averaging method which is appl...
متن کاملImproved model of hydrated calcium ion for molecular dynamics simulations using classical biomolecular force fields.
Calcium ions (Ca(2+) ) play key roles in various fundamental biological processes such as cell signaling and brain function. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been used to study such interactions, however, the accuracy of the Ca(2+) models provided by the standard MD force fields has not been rigorously tested. Here, we assess the performance of the Ca(2+) models from the most popular cl...
متن کاملSop-GPU: accelerating biomolecular simulations in the centisecond timescale using graphics processors.
Theoretical exploration of fundamental biological processes involving the forced unraveling of multimeric proteins, the sliding motion in protein fibers and the mechanical deformation of biomolecular assemblies under physiological force loads is challenging even for distributed computing systems. Using a C(α)-based coarse-grained self organized polymer (SOP) model, we implemented the Langevin s...
متن کاملMolecular-dynamics Study of Thermal Boundary Resistance: Evidence of Strong Inelastic Scattering Transport Channels
With the ever-decreasing size of microelectronics, growing applications of superlattices, and development of nanotechnology, thermal resistances of interfaces are becoming increasingly central to thermal management. Although there has been much success in understanding thermal boundary resistance (TBR) at low temperature, the current models for room temperature TBR are not adequate. This work e...
