Coarse-Graining of Condensed Phase and Biomolecular Systems

Informationen zum Autor Gregory A. Voth Klappentext Coarse-graining--the reduction of molecular-scale information into simplified models--is used primarily in simulations to obtain system properties. While several challenges to this technique have yet to be overcome! coarse-graining promises to offer revolutionary advancement in the molecular simulation community. Coarse-Graining of Condensed Phase and Biomolecular Systems is the first book entirely devoted to exploring the state-of-the-art of these techniques. Leading contributors discuss a broad range of topics including nucleic acids! minimalist models for protein folding! mixed resolution coarse graining! and elastic network models of protein complexes. Zusammenfassung Examines systematic ways of constructing coarse-grained representations for complex systems. This book explains how this approach can be used in the simulation and modeling of condensed phase and biomolecular systems. It also focuses on specific examples of evolving coarse-graining methodologies and presents results for various complex systems. Inhaltsverzeichnis 105595111
