Molecular Dynamics

Overview & Synopsis

Molecular Dynamics is a two-volume compendium of the ever-growing applications of molecular dynamics simulations to solve a wider range of scientific and engineering challenges. The contents illustrate the rapid progress on molecular dynamics simulations in many fields of science and technology, such as nanotechnology, energy research, and biology, due to the advances of new dynamics theories and the extraordinary power of today's computers. This second book begins with an introduction of molecular dynamics simulations to macromolecules and then illustrates the computer experiments using molecular dynamics simulations in the studies of synthetic and biological macromolecules, plasmas, and nanomachines. Coverage of this book includes: _x0001_Complex formation and dynamics of polymers _x0001_Dynamics of lipid bilayers, peptides, DNA, RNA, and proteins _x0001_Complex liquids and plasmas _x0001_Dynamics of molecules on surfaces _x0001_Nanofluidics and nanomachines
