OFFER DESCRIPTION

Molecular simulations indicated that this conformation is a low-free-energy state and a favorable design feature for other distinct orexin receptor antagonists. Computer modeling can be used to identify the lowest energy conformation of a molecule in solution, which can be dicult to achieve experimentally. The first to introduce molecular dynamics simulations were Alder and Wainwright in [AW57] for hard spheres. Since then the field has evolved significantly and now complex molecular systems, polymers, DNA filaments, etc. can be simulated with the use of appropriate models and rapidly growing computational algorithms and computer hardware. Phonons and molecular dynamic simulation provide valuable tools to study the molecular systems under different structure forms. They are helpful to study graphene ribbons and defects. On the other hand, many machine learning techniques were extensively used to analyse the enormous amounts of data resulted from the molecular simulations.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a fundamental approach to allow researchers to study the molecular interactions of protein-ligand binding via the dynamics of protein-ligand complexes at atomic level. It can be observed precisely the motion of atoms and interactions involved in receptor and ligand binding using MD simulations.
