Recap on Dynamics Simulations 1. Choose a force field (check atom type, atomic charges) [Note that it is important to check if net charge of your model is zero] 2. Make sure the structure is stable (either previously energy minimized or having dynamics simulation performed) 3. Set simulation parameters (ensemble, initial velocity, dynamics temperature and thermostat, pressure and barostat, integration step, simulation length, output property and frequency) Page 11 stlin@ntu.edu.tw
