DESCRIPTION

GROMACS is a full-featured suite of programs to perform molecular dynamics simulations,
i.e., to simulate the behavior of systems with hundreds to millions of particles using
Newtonian equations of motion. It is primarily used for research on proteins, lipids, and
polymers, but can be applied to a wide variety of chemical and biological research
questions.
