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.
