Molecular Dynamics Simulator
Introduction This is a molecular dynamics simulator I programmed in Fortran in order to understand MD in more detail. Periodic boundary conditions, energy minimizer, thermostat and barostat, as well as a correct physical scale and forcefields for the noble gasses are already implemented and working well. Future steps might include parallelization of the calculation of… Continue reading »
