Abstract
The structure of the general classical trajectory FORTRAN code is discussed for use in molecular dynamics simulations of polymer processes. Substantial reductions in the number of mathematical operations in the code are achieved by using statement functions, modifying the ususal chain rule derivatives, applying appropriate vector identities, and using closure relationships among the required derivatives of the potential.

This article describes the collisional dynamics (CD) method adapted for molecules with geometrical constraints within a description using Cartesian coordinates for the atoms. In the CD method, stochastic collisions with virtual particles are included in usual molecular dynamics simulations to couple

The method employs multiple time steps across the computhe forces and the neighbor list updating, according to t
In solving optimal control problems, the conventional dynamic programming method often requires interpolations to determine the optimal control law. As a consequence, interpolation errors often degenerate the accuracy of the conventional dynamic programming method. In view of this problem, this pape
## Abstract We present a new implementation of the program __n__Moldyn, which has been developed for the computation and decomposition of neutron scattering intensities from Molecular Dynamics trajectories (Comp. Phys. Commun 1995, 91, 191โ214). The new implementation extends the functionality of t
