Dear all,
A question about, in MD, in which situation you can obtain a structure
with lowest energy.
Any dynamical simulation has a lowest-energy structure... whether this
means anything is another question.
Can MD simulate the kinetics process, and obtain a stuctrue with the
lowest activation barriers?
Mapping free-energy surfaces where bonds are not made or broken can be
done with conventional MD.
Typically, are the structures we find with MD determined mainly by
thermodynamics or by kinetics ?
MD samples the free-energy surface. Its shape and the temperature
determine what structures might be found, and in what proportions.
