Abstract/Description
A study of Molecular Dynamics using computational methods and modeling provides the understanding on the interaction of the atoms, properties, structure, and motion and model phenomenon. There are numerous commercial tools available for simulation, analysis and visualization. However any particular tool does not provide all the functionalities.

Show moreA study of Molecular Dynamics using computational methods and modeling provides the understanding on the interaction of the atoms, properties, structure, and motion and model phenomenon. There are numerous commercial tools available for simulation, analysis and visualization. However any particular tool does not provide all the functionalities. The main objective of this work is the development of the visualization tool customized for our research needs to view the three dimensional orientation of the atom, process the simulation results offline, able to handle large volume of data, ability to display complete frame, atomic trails, and runtime response to the researchers' query with low processing time. This thesis forms the basis for the development of such an in-house tool for analysis and display of simulation results based on Open GL and MFC. Advantages, limitations, capabilities and future aspects are also discussed. The result is the system capable of processing large amount of simulation result data in 11 minutes and query response and display in less than 1 second.

Abstract/Description
Molecular dynamics is a computer simulation technique for expressing the ultimate details of individual particle motions and can be used in many fields, such as chemical physics, materials science, and the modeling of biomolecules. In this thesis, we study visualization and pattern mining in molecular dynamics simulation. The molecular data set has a large number of atoms in each frame and range of frames.

Show moreMolecular dynamics is a computer simulation technique for expressing the ultimate details of individual particle motions and can be used in many fields, such as chemical physics, materials science, and the modeling of biomolecules. In this thesis, we study visualization and pattern mining in molecular dynamics simulation. The molecular data set has a large number of atoms in each frame and range of frames. The features of the data set include atom ID; frame number; position in x, y, and z plane; charge; and mass. The three main challenges of this thesis are to display a larger number of atoms and range of frames, to visualize this large data set in 3-dimension, and to cluster the abnormally shifting atoms that move with the same pace and direction in different frames. Focusing on these three challenges, there are three contributions of this thesis. First, we design an abnormal pattern mining and visualization framework for molecular dynamics simulation. The proposed framework can visualize the clusters of abnormal shifting atom groups in a three-dimensional space, and show their temporal relationships. Second, we propose a pattern mining method to detect abnormal atom groups which share similar movement and have large variance compared to the majority atoms. We propose a general molecular dynamics simulation tool, which can visualize a large number of atoms, including their movement and temporal relationships, to help domain experts study molecular dynamics simulation results. The main functions for this visualization and pattern mining tool include atom number, cluster visualization, search across different frames, multiple frame range search, frame range switch, and line demonstration for atom motions in different frames. Therefore, this visualization and pattern mining tool can be used in the field of chemical physics, materials science, and the modeling of biomolecules for the molecular dynamic simulation outcomes.
