PBSA models the electrostatic solvation interaction by the Poisson-Boltzmann ! equation. The implementation (module poisson_boltzmann) uses the finite- ! difference method to solve the partial differential equation. Both linear ! and full nonlinear numerical solvers are implemented. Please refer to the ! following publications: ! ! 1. Luo, David, and Gilson, J. Comp. Chem. 23:1244-1253, 2002. ! 2. Qin, Wang, Zhao, and Luo, J. Chem. Phys. 130:14501, 2009. ! 3. Wang and Luo, J. Comp. Chem. In Press, 2010. ! ! for implementation details of the linear solvers. The full nonlinear solvers ! are documented in: ! ! 1. Cai, Wang, and Luo, J. Chem. Comp. Theo. In Press, 2009. ! ! The electrostatic energy and forces are computed based on the finite- ! difference grid potentials as discussed in the following publications: ! ! 1. Lu and Luo, J. Chem. Phys. 119:11035-11047, 2003. ! 2. Xiang, Wang, and Luo, J. Chem. Phys. Submited. 2009. ! ! The dielectric models and molecular surface used in the electrostatic ! solvation model are documented in: ! ! 1. Wang, Ye, and Luo, J. Phys. Chem. Submitted, 2009. ! 2. Ye and Luo, J. Phys. Chem. Submitted, 2009. ! ! The parameters used in the electrostatic solvation model are documented in ! the following publication: ! ! 1. Tan, Yang and Luo, J. Phys. Chem. 110:18680-18687, 2006. ! ! PBSA models the nonelectrostatic solvation interaction by two separate ! terms, dispersion (or van der Waals or attractive) and cavity (or ! hydrophobic or repulsive), in this implementation (module dispersion_cavity). ! The dispersion term is computed by a numerical integration over the solvent ! accessible surface area. The cavity term is modeled by a term proportional to ! the molecular surface or volume with a single proportional constant. See the ! following publication for details: ! ! Tan, Tan and Luo, J. Phys.
