Proteins, through their unique and specific interactions with other macromolecules and
inorganics, control structures and functions of all biological hard and soft tissues in …

Atomic force microscopy of single molecules, steered molecular dynamics and the theory of
stochastic processes have established a new field that investigates mechanical functions of …

Single-molecule force experiments in vitro enable the characterization of the mechanical
response of biological matter at the nanometer scale. However, they do not reveal the …

NAMD is a molecular dynamics program designed for high-performance simulations of very
large biological objects on CPU-and GPU-based architectures. NAMD offers scalable …

Molecular dynamics programs simulate the behavior of biomolecular systems, leading to
understanding of their functions. However, the computational complexity of such simulations …

NAMD is a parallel molecular dynamics code designed for high‐performance simulation of
large biomolecular systems. NAMD scales to hundreds of processors on high‐end parallel …

VMD is a molecular graphics program designed for the display and analysis of molecular
assemblies, in particular biopolymers such as proteins and nucleic acids. VMD can …

A neural network algorithm based on a soft-max adaptation rule is presented. This algorithm
exhibits good performance in reaching the optimum minimization of a cost function for vector …

Aquaporins are transmembrane channels found in cell membranes of all life forms. We
examine their apparently paradoxical property, facilitation of efficient permeation of water …

Abstract Titin, a 1-μm-long protein found in striated muscle myofibrils, possesses unique
elastic and extensibility properties in its I-band region, which is largely composed of a PEVK …
