Abstract: | We present a computationally efficient implementation of hydrodynamic modeling for the evaluation of diffusion tensors of molecules with internal degrees of freedom, adapted to take into account information from linear scaling computations of solvent accessible surfaces implemented in the framework of last generation continuum solvent models. Torsional angles are taken also explicitly into account, while retaining correct hydrodynamic interactions. A comparison with literature data is presented to prove the effectiveness of the approach for a wide range of molecular dimensions and solvent environments. |
