A comparative study of molecular dynamics in Cartesian and in internal coordinates : dynamical instability in the latter caused by nonlinearity of the equations of motion

The stability of a general molecular dynamics (MD) integration scheme is examined for simulations in generalized (internal plus external) coordinates (GCs). An analytic expression is derived for the local error in energy during each integration time step. This shows that the explicit dependence of t...
