Molecular Modeling Methods and Applications (ASME IDETC 2009)

Submitted by Sachin Goyal on

( Call for Papers pdf)

The goal of this symposium is to present a forum for discussions on recent developments in methods for modeling and simulations of large bio-molecules, microscale biological structures and materials. These methods may include, but are not limited to, multi-scale modeling, normal mode analysis, reduced order modeling using rigid or flexible body representations, articulated multibody methods, continuum-mechanics based methods, low order algorithms applied to molecular dynamics simulations, efficient force calculation methods, efficient methods for calculating functional and structural properties, applications of these methods or traditional molecular dynamics to novel biomolecular and materials modeling, reviews of notable works in molecular dynamics, discussions on modeling challenges, etc. Full-length papers are invited in these topics from all disciplines of science and engineering.

There will be a student paper competition, so student papers are particularly welcome. Please consult the conference web page at http://www.rpi.edu/~anderk5/MSNDC2009, for rules and restrictions. 

Papers must be submitted electronically in a PDF format as described in the IDETC 2009 website beforeFebruary 6, 2009. All manuscripts will be reviewed and, if accepted, the technical paper will be published in the conference proceedings on CD-ROM.
