Simulation time has been dramatically reduced by an embedded "MD Engine(R)," a dedicated computation board for high-speed computation of nonbonded interactions such as coulomb force and intermolecular force that account for more than 99% in many cases of molecular dynamics simulation. The crevice, or energy minimum, is created by the Coulomb force, which causes positively charged protons to repel one another, together with quantum mechanical effects, elongating the nucleus into a superdeformed shape and giving the nucleus a measure of stability. |
