Hi,
The conjugated gradients algorithm has been replaced by a molecular
dynamics option. This is probably not the right place for this
(altough this might be usefull in his current and simple form to
simulate simple things like a water molecule). It probably deserves
it’s own tool where you can record and play back trajectories. I
haven’t looked at the code yet, but does OB support trajectories?
Is anyone working on this, I saw it is on the todo list. Or does
someone need special features? Comment on the description below if you
had visioned the implementation differently.
Here is a desciption of how I think the tool could be implemented:
a slider (min=1, max=number of frames)
a row with buttons: [ << ] [ < ] [ [] ] [ | | |> ] [ > ] [ >> ]
below setting to do MD simulations:
- temperature
- timestep (=0.001ps)
- steps
- button “simulate” (this would open a file dialog (trajectory
filename), start the MD simulation and show progressbar)
