Simulation of Ionic Copolymers by Molecular Dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using GROMACS (a molecular dynamics package) we simulate ionic copolymers and compare the numerical results with those obtained by the lattice Monte Carlo simulations. While the results are qualitatively similar for both methods, the simulation times are significantly longer for the molecular dynamics simulations than those for the corresponding Monte Carlo runs.

متن کاملInvestigation of Melting by Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The melting of a 64 ion microcrystal of KCI was studied by means of a molecular dynamics computer simulation. We used a central pair interaction with an inverse power law repulsion. The thermodynamics, kinetic and structural properties such as melting temperature, latent heat, mean square displacement, diffusion constant, radial distribution function and bond angle distribution are calculated. ...

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...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Water Transportation through Aquaporin-4 in Rat Brain Cells
This paper investigates the mechanism of water transportation through aquaporin-4(AQP4) of ratbrain cells by means of molecular dynamics simulation with CHARMM software. The AQP4 wasembedded into a bilayer made of Dimystroilphosphatylcholine (DMPC). The results illustrate thatwater molecules move through AQP4's channel with change of orientation of oxygen of eachwater molecule.
متن کاملStudies of Interaction between Propranolol and Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of DMMP by Molecular Spectroscopy and Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The interaction between propranolol (PROP) and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied in the presence of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). DMMP is usually considered as a simulant for chemical warfare agents (CWAs). For this purpose fluorescence quenching, resonance light scattering (RLS), synchronous, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation were emplo...
