md¶
In molecular dynamics simulations, HOOMD-blue numerically integrates the degrees
of freedom in the system as a function of time under the influence of forces. To
perform MD simulations, assign a MD Integrator
to the hoomd.Simulation
operations. Provide the Integrator
with lists of integration methods, forces,
and constraints to apply during the integration. Use hoomd.md.minimize.FIRE
to perform energy minimization.
MD updaters (hoomd.md.update
) perform additional operations during the
simulation, including rotational diffusion and establishing shear flow.
Use MD computes (hoomd.md.compute
) to compute the thermodynamic properties of
the system state.
