Elaboration of series of MD simulations along an appropriate coordinate using a biasing potential

Molecular dynamics: Newton’s Laws

T = 300KQM/MM potential for 50,000 atoms within periodic boundary conditions

A typical MD trajectory within an “umbrella sampling” window takes ~10 CPU days to perform 20 ps equilibration + 20 ps production run to average over the sampled configurations
