GROMACS is a versatile package to perform molecular dynamics,
|
||
|
|
i.e. simulate the Newtonian equations of motion for systems with
|
||
|
|
hundreds to millions of particles.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is primarily designed for biochemical molecules like proteins,
|
||
|
|
lipids and nucleic acids that have a lot of complicated bonded
|
||
|
|
interactions, but since GROMACS is extremely fast at calculating
|
||
|
|
the nonbonded interactions (that usually dominate simulations)
|
||
|
|
many groups are also using it for research on non-biological
|
||
|
|
systems, e.g. polymers.
