Dielectric Boundary Force in Molecular Solvation with the Poisson-Boltzmann Free Energy: A Shape Derivative Approach
In an implicit-solvent description of molecular solvation, the electrostatic free energy is given through the electrostatic potential. This potential solves a boundary-value problem of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation in which the dielectric coefficient changes across the solute-solvent interface-the dielectric boundary. The dielectric boundary force acting on such a boundary is the negative firs...
متن کاملParallel AFMPB solver with automatic surface meshing for calculation of molecular solvation free energy
We present PAFMPB, an updated and parallel version of the AFMPB software package for fast calculation of molecular solvation-free energy. The new version has the following new features: (1) The adaptive fast multipole method and the boundary element methods are parallelized; (2) A tool is embedded for automatic molecular VDW/SAS surface mesh generation, leaving the requirement for a mesh file a...
متن کاملMinimization of Electrostatic Free Energy and the Poisson-Boltzmann Equation for Molecular Solvation with Implicit Solvent
In an implicit-solvent description of the solvation of charged molecules (solutes), the electrostatic free energy is a functional of concentrations of ions in the solvent. The charge density is determined by such concentrations together with the point charges of the solute atoms, and the electrostatic potential is determined by the Poisson equation with a variable dielectric coefficient. Such a...
متن کاملFree-energy analysis of solvation with the method of energy representation.
A new theory of solutions, the method of energy representation, is introduced by adopting the solute-solvent interaction energy as the coordinate of distribution functions. The density-functional theory is formulated over the energy coordinate, and an approximate functional for the solvation free energy is given in terms of energy distribution functions in the solution and reference solvent sys...
متن کاملQuantum free-energy calculations: A three-dimensional test case
An optimized integration scheme for calculating vibrational-rotational partition functions by the Fourier path-integral method, as presented in the previous paper [R. Q. Topper and D. G. Truhlar, J. Chem. Phys. 97, 3647 (1992)] is applied to a three-dimensional test case involving the coupled vibrational and rotational motions of a diatomic HCI molecule in Cartesian coordinates. Converged parti...
