On the improvement of free-energy calculation from steered molecular dynamics simulations using adaptive stochastic perturbation protocols.

The potential of mean force (PMF) calculation in single molecule manipulation experiments performed via the steered molecular dynamics (SMD) technique is a computationally very demanding task because the analyzed system has to be perturbed very slowly to be kept close to equilibrium. Faster perturba...
