Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have increasingly contributed to the understanding of biomolecular processes, allowing for predictions of thermodynamic and structural properties. Unfortunately, the holy grail of protein structure prediction was soon fo ...
In this paper we evaluate the free energy of the dilute p-spin model at finite temperature. Franz et al gave the first step to rigourize the replica solution for the dilute p-spin model by proving that the solution given by the Parisi replica scheme is a l ...
Organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene (RA) antitumour compounds of the general type [Ru(II)(η6-arene)(X)2(pta)], RA-pta, and [Ru(II)(η6-arene)X(en)], RA-en, (X=leaving group; pta=1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane, en=ethylenediamine) have been investigated com ...
We derived an orbital dependent Kohn-Sham based scheme for the correction of the self-interaction error in DFT, which is particularly suited for the study of open shell molecular systems. Our approach is based on a weighted form of the Perdew and Zunger (P ...
Mol. dynamics simulations at 298 K are used to study an aq. dissolved dye (eosin Y) adsorbed at the TiO2(1 1 0) surface to ext. static and dynamic information of solvation. Differences in the phys. behavior of the dye at the surface and in bulk H2O are com ...
The stacking of positively charged (or doped) terthiophene oligomers and quaterthiophene polymers in solution is investigated applying a recently developed unified electrostatic and cavitation model for first-principles calculations in a continuum solvent. ...
A computational method was developed which relates the empirical linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) solute polarity parameter, S (formerly denoted ), to two more fundamental quantities: a polarizability term and a computed solvent-accessible-surfa ...
The thermochem. of the RuO42- + MnO4- RuO4- + MnO42- redox reaction in aq. soln. is studied by sep. d.-functional-based ab initio mol.-dynamics simulations of the component half reactions RuO42- -> RuO4- + e- and MnO42- -> MnO4- + e-. We compare the result ...
We have developed a simple and quant. explanation for the relatively low melting temps. of ionic liqs. (ILs). The basic concept was to assess the Gibbs free energy of fusion (ΔfusG) for the process IL(s) -> IL(l), which relates to the m.p. ...
We review the state-of-the-art in computational molecular simulations for biological systems. We limit our discussion to three fields: all-atom simulations, coarse-grained models, and novel multiscale approaches. While molecular dynamics simulations are br ...
