What can Molecular Dynamic Simulations do?
Classical molecular dynamics is a particle simulation method based on parameterized force fields.
Molecular dynamic simulations is a suitable tool for the investigation of atomic processes, which are reflected in macroscopic, application-relevant material properties.
Applications include a wide range of materials and structures (crystalline solids, glasses, porous layers, liquids, clusters).
