Additionally, MSMs facilitate the calculation of quantities that are difficult to obtain from more direct MD analyses, such as the ensemble of transition pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book introduces the mathematical foundations of Markov models, how they can be used to analyze simulations and drive efficient simulations, and some of the insights these models have yielded in a variety of applications of molecular simulation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-12-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789400776050\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-007-7606-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 139\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541524476044,"sku":"9789400776050","price":179.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789400776050_f902f835-2739-4673-9999-1879d3cf3537.jpg?v=1777374964","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789400776050","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
