We study the stability of boundary conditions for molecular dynamics simulations. A general stability criterion is established. We first consider a one-dimensional model with nearest neighbor interaction and multiple-neighbor interactions. We then generalize the results to more realistic models in 3
## Abstract An extended system Hamiltonian is proposed to perform molecular dynamics (MD) simulation in the grand canonical ensemble. The Hamiltonian is similar to the one proposed by Lynch and Pettitt (Lynch and Pettitt, J Chem Phys 1997, 107, 8594), which consists of the kinetic and potential ene
## Abstract A new grid‐cell algorithm is presented that permits the fast construction of cutoff‐based nonbonded pairlists in molecular simulations under periodic boundary conditions based on an arbitrary box shape. The key features of the method are (1) the use of a one‐dimensional mask array (to d
## Abstract The effect of the box shape on the dynamic behavior of proteins simulated under periodic boundary conditions is evaluated. In particular, the influence of simulation boxes defined by the near‐densest lattice packing (NDLP) in conjunction with rotational constraints is compared to that o
