Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Molecular Dynamics ( MD ) simulation is a rapidly developing molecular simulation method in recent years. It is based on classical mechanics, quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics, and uses computer numerical method to solve the motion equation of molecular system.As the third scientific method to study molecular structure and properties, molecular dynamics simulation has been widely used in chemical engineering, material science and engineering, physics, biological medicine and other fields of science and technology.This technique can not only obtain the trajectory of atoms, but also observe various microscopic details in the process of atomic motion.It is a powerful supplement to theoretical calculations and experiments, and the main advantages include the dynamic of the research method, abundant analytical means, and seamless combination with molecular docking and pharmacophore and other molecular simulation methods.
