New space warping method for the simulation of large-scale macromolecular conformational changes
A space warping method, facilitating the modeling of large-scale conformational changes in mesoscopic systems, is presented. The method uses a set of "global (or collective) coordinates" that capture overall behavior, in conjunction with the set of atomic coordinates. Application of the space warping method to energy minimization is discussed. Several simulations where the method is used to det...
متن کاملEffects of Macromolecular Crowding on Protein Conformational Changes
Many protein functions can be directly linked to conformational changes. Inside cells, the equilibria and transition rates between different conformations may be affected by macromolecular crowding. We have recently developed a new approach for modeling crowding effects, which enables an atomistic representation of "test" proteins. Here this approach is applied to study how crowding affects the...
متن کاملMulti-scale Modelling of Sintering
Sintering models at the atomistic, particle and component scales are briefly reviewed and problems in the current generation of sintering models are highlighted. A strategy of multi-scale modelling is proposed and our progress in the multiscale modelling is reported. Mathematical details of the models are left out and the paper is set out to demonstrate what is possible in the next generation o...
متن کاملMulti-scale modelling of damage and fracture
Recently, a novel multi-scale modelling approach for damage and fracture problems was presented. This method departs from classical computational homogenization (FE) and evolves to a discontinuity enriched scheme upon the localization detection. Rotating boundary conditions allow for microscale localization bands to develop. The formulation of the macroscopic cohesive discontinuity enables the ...
متن کاملMulti-Scale Modelling of Proto-Zeolitic Solutions
A number of aspects of the pre-nucleation zeolite synthesis solution are considered. Various environmental and structural effects on the Si NMR chemical shift of silicon nuclei are investigated, in order to ascertain the necessary computational model for a systematic study of oligomeric silicate species identified or postulated to be present during this phase of zeolite crystal growth. It is de...
