Molecular dynamics and verisimilitude - to what extent can one trust a computational simulation?

Abstract

For the last several tens of years, computer simulations have become of undeniable importance. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation techniques are used to examine the phenomena which occur at the level that cannot be observed directly. Thus, they can be successfully exploited in many different scientific fields such as: materials science, applied mathematics and theoretical physics, biochemistry, biophysics or drug design. Despite the increasing popularity of this technique, it is still subjected to some kind of restraint and distrust by many of scientists working with traditional methods. The aim of this paper is to show to what extent one can trust a computational simulation made with Molecular Dynamics technique by revealing both major advantages and limitations of this method.
