Accelerated dynamics with the dynamical activation-relaxation technique
G. T. Barkema, Normand Mousseau
The dynamics of many atomic systems is controlled by activated events taking place on a time scale which is long compared to that associated with thermal vibrations. This often pla…
Complex folding pathways in a simple beta-hairpin
Guanghong Wei, Normand Mousseau, Philippe Derreumaux
The determination of the folding mechanisms of proteins is critical to understand the topological change that can propagate Alzheimer and Creutzfeld-Jakobs diseases, among others.…
Efficient sampling in complex materials at finite temperature: the thermodynamically-weighted activation-relaxation technique
Normand Mousseau, G. T. Barkema
We present an accelerated algorithm that samples correctly the thermodynamic ensemble in complex systems where the dynamics is controlled by activation barriers. The efficiency of…
Relationship between dynamical heterogeneities and stretched exponential relaxation
S. I. Simdyankin, Normand Mousseau
We identify the dynamical heterogeneities as an essential prerequisite for stretched exponential relaxation in dynamically frustrated systems. This heterogeneity takes the form of…
Cooperative motion in Lennard-Jones binary mixtures below the glass transition
Normand Mousseau
Using the activation-relaxation technique (ART), we study the nature of relaxation events in a binary Lennard-Jones system above and below the glass transition temperature (T_g). A…
Tight-binding molecular-dynamics studies of defects and disorder in covalently-bonded materials
Laurent J Lewis, Normand Mousseau
Tight-binding (TB) molecular dynamics (MD) has emerged as a powerful method for investigating the atomic-scale structure of materials --- in particular the interplay between struct…
