00 4 Langevin Dynamics in Constant Pressure Extended Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
The advantages of performing Langevin Dynamics in extended systems are discussed. A simple Langevin Dynamics scheme for producing the canonical ensemble is reviewed, and is then extended to the Hoover ensemble. We show that the resulting equations of motion generate the isobaricisothermal ensemble. The Parrinello-Rahman ensemble is then discussed and we show that despite the presence of intrinsic probability gradients in this system, a Langevin Dynamics approach samples the extended phase space in the correct fashion. The implementation of these methods in the abinitio plane wave density functional theory (DFT) code CASTEP [M. D. Segall, P. L. D. Lindan, M. J. Probert, C. J. Pickard, P. J. Hasnip, S. J. Clarke and M.C. Payne, J. Phys.: Cond. Matt. 14 (11), 2717 (2003)] is demonstrated.

Investigation of Monte Carlo, Molecular Dynamic and Langevin dynamic simulation methods for Albumin- Methanol system and Albumin-Water system
Serum Albumin is the most aboundant protein in blood plasma. Its two major roles aremaintaining osmotic pressure and depositing and transporting compounds. In this paper,Albumin-methanol solution simulation is carried out by three techniques including MonteCarlo (MC), Molecular Dynamic (MD) and Langevin Dynamic (LD) simulations. Byinvestigating energy changes by time and temperature (between 27...
متن کاملThe Effects of Different SDE Calculus on Dynamics of Nano-Aerosols Motion in Two Phase Flow Systems
Langevin equation for a nano-particle suspended in a laminar fluid flow was analytically studied. The Brownian motion generated from molecular bombardment was taken as a Wiener stochastic process and approximated by a Gaussian white noise. Euler-Maruyama method was used to solve the Langevin equation numerically. The accuracy of Brownian simulation was checked by performing a series of simulati...

The determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a Macromolecule. Italso reflects molecular compactness shape. In this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. We studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for Acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Potassium Chloride Melting (II. Constant Volume and Constant Pressure Simulation of Filled System)
We have used a simple ionic potential to simulate the melting of KCI pseudo-infinite crystal. Two MD simulations, one with constant Volume and the other with constant pressure condition are performed. These results are compared with the previous micro-sample simulation results. In the constant volume simulation the melting temperature increase substantially with increasing pressure. A method fo...
