Current Research
My current research is in Quantum Drude Oscillators (QDO's), a unified approach to molecular
polarisation and dispersion attractions, for molecular dynamics simulations. This treatment is especially
relevant to complex many-body environments involving biological molecules and surfaces, where
current models, using less detailed physics, tend to fail. The current goal is to construct a model of
water using QDO's. Molecular dynamics with QDO's requires Path Integral Molecular Dynamics
(PIMD), an extension to classical molecular dynamics that evolves a connected chain of states, to
approximate the Feynman path integral. Much of our current work focusses on increasing the
computational efficiency of PIMD for QDO's (especially reducing the length of the chain), in order to
make it attractive for widespread use.
