METAGUI. A VMD interface for analyzing metadynamics and molecular dynamics simulations

This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2018)

Abstract
We present a new computational tool, METAGUI, which extends the VMD program with a graphical user interface that allows constructing a thermodynamic and kinetic model of a given process simulated by large-scale molecular dynamics. The tool is specially designed for analyzing metadynamics based simulations. The huge amount of diverse structures generated during such a simulation is partitioned into a set of microstates (i.e. structures with similar values of the collective variables). Their re...

Title of program: METAGUI
Catalogue Id: AEKH_v1_0

Nature of problem
Extract thermodynamic data and build a kinetic model of a given process simulated by metadynamics or molecular dynamics simulations, and provide this information on a dual representation that allows navigating and exploring the molecular structures corresponding to each point along the multidimensional free energy hypersurface.
