Metal cations often play an important role in shaping the three-dimensional structure of peptides. As an example, the model system AcPheAla5LysH+ is investigated in order to fully understand the forces that stabilize its helical structure. In particular, t ...
Classical molecular dynamics is more and more often coupled to quantum mechanical based techniques as a statistical tool to sample configurations of molecular systems embedded in complex environments. Nonetheless, the classical potentials describing the mo ...
We derive and validate averaged solvent parameters for embedding potentials to be used in polarizable embedding quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) molecular property calculations of solutes in organic solvents. The parameters are solvent-specifi ...
Quantum-mechanical embedding methods have in recent years gained significant interest and may now be applied to predict a wide range of molecular properties calculated at different levels of theory. To reach a high level of accuracy in embedding methods, b ...
Polarizable quantum mechanical (QM)/molecular mechanics (MM)-embedding methods are currently among the most promising methods for computationally feasible, yet reliable, production calculations of localized excitations and molecular response properties of ...
We consider quenched and annealed Lyapunov exponents for the Green's function of -Delta + gamma V, where the potentials V(x) ,x epsilon Z(d), are i.i.d. nonnegative random variables and gamma > 0 is a scalar. We present a probabilistic proof that both Lyap ...
The ability of the phase-field-crystal (PFC) model to quantitatively predict atomistic defect structures in crystalline solids is addressed. First, general aspects of the PFC model are discussed within the context of obtaining quantitative results in solid ...
Impurities are known to have a significant impact on materials properties. In particular, the presence of impurities can change mechanical properties and stabilize the microstructure by reducing grain growth and recrystallization processes. In the past ato ...
The treatment of dispersion interactions is ubiquitous but computationally demanding for seamless ab initio approaches. A highly popular and simple remedy consists in correcting for the missing interactions a posteriori by adding an attractive energy term ...
We present a new generation of coarse-grained (CG) potentials that account for a simplified electrostatic description of soluble proteins. The treatment of permanent electrostatic dipoles of the backbone and polar side-chains allows to simulate proteins, p ...
