Description

This repository contains software developed for FREquency-SElective ANharmonic (FRESEAN) mode analysis of molecular vibrations in molecular dynamics trajectories. This can be combined with coarse-graining of all-atom trajectories (implemented for proteins) to minimize computational cost and memory requirements, while preserving information on the lowest frequency vibrations.

A tutorial includes all required input files to combine FRESEAN mode analysis with metadynamics simulations of hen egg white lysozyme to sample its conformational free energy landscape.
