&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==What is Metadynamics?==&lt;br /&gt;
•A simulation method normally applied as part of molecular dynamics&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Used to estimate free energy and state functions of systems where ergodicity (given enough time simulation will explore all possible configurations/areas of phase space) is hindered by energy landscape&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Similar to: Adaptively biased MD, Adaptive reaction coordinate forces, Local elevation umbrella sampling&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Suggested and developed by Alessandro Laio and Michele Parrinello&lt;br /&gt;
==How does Metadynamics work?==&lt;br /&gt;
•Filling free energy wells with computational sand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Tracking grains of sand placed along collective variables&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Eventually the wells are completely full and you add sand to sand (known as convergence)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•The landscape is opposite of sum of all sand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzEBpQ0c8TA&lt;br /&gt;
==How Metadynamics Really Work!==&lt;br /&gt;
•Collective variables (s): set of variables which accurately describe the system&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•CV Examples: Dihedral angle for cis to trans butane, Distance for cation and anion&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Limitations: 3CV or 8CV with multiple replicas coupled together&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Exponential cost increase with each CV&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Grains of sand are bias potentials&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Hamiltonian is augmented with bias potential Vbias shown in Equation 1[[File:Hamiltonian With Bias Potential.png|thumb|Equation 1|link=https://biomolmd.org/mw/index.php/File:Hamiltonian_With_Bias_Potential.png]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Bias potential Vbias is continuously updated by adding bias (more grains of sand) visualized in Figure 1[[File:Energy Landscape Filled With Gaussians.png|thumb|Figure 1|link=https://biomolmd.org/mw/index.php/File:Energy_Landscape_Filled_With_Gaussians.png]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Defined Variables for Equation 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Vbias: bias potential&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•tsim: simulation time&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•s: collective variable&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•st: instantaneous collective variable at time t&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ω: bias deposition rate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•F: free energy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•C: constant (irrelevant)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Evaluating the integral of bias potential over the time duration of the simulation returns free energy F with a negative sign given enough time&lt;br /&gt;
==How to make Metadynamics efficient and computationally viable?==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Efficient Bias Potential Equation.png|thumb|Equation 3|link=https://biomolmd.org/mw/index.php/File:Efficient_Bias_Potential_Equation.png]]•Time is discretized into T time intervals&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•The Dirac delta function is replaced with a Gaussian function&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Time intervals (T), bias deposition rate (ω), and width of Gaussian functions (σ) are constants determined as inputs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Vbias equation for efficient implementation shown in Equation 3&lt;br /&gt;
==Two types of Metadynamics==&lt;br /&gt;
•Everything so far has been “original” or “plain” metadynamics&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Well-tempered metadynamics scales Gaussian height down as wells are filled[[File:Gaussian Height Scaling Equation.png|thumb|Equation 4|link=https://biomolmd.org/mw/index.php/File:Gaussian_Height_Scaling_Equation.png]]Defined Variables for Equation 4 and 5:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•w: Gaussian height&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ω: bias deposition rate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Vb: estimate of free energy at current CV position and time step&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ΔT: tunable parameter controls how quickly Gaussian height reduces as wells are filled[[File:Free Energy Equation Using Well-Tempered Metadynamics.png|thumb|Equation 5|link=https://biomolmd.org/mw/index.php/File:Free_Energy_Equation_Using_Well-Tempered_Metadynamics.png]]•F: free energy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Final value of biasing potential is a scaled approximation of free energy as shown in Equation 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Well-tempered metadynamics allows for rapid exploration of phase space as the wells are filled quickly (at Vbias=0 the amount of bias deposited is relatively large, at Vbias=infinity the amount of bias deposited is infinitely small)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•As wells fill progressively smaller perturbations to bias potential lead to &amp;quot;smooth convergence&amp;quot; (less excess bias potential or sand deposited on &#039;top&#039;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Suggested and developed by Alessandro Barducci, Giovanni Bussi, and Michele Parrinello&lt;br /&gt;

Movie Comparing MD, MTD, and WTMTD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzEBpQ0c8TA&lt;br /&gt;
==Applications of Metadynamics==&lt;br /&gt;
•Able to sample free energy curve even when ergodicity is limited by energy landscape&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Keys to successful metadynamics simulation are choice and definition of CVs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Applicable systems: Protein folding, Molecular docking, Phase transitions, Chemical reactions, Simple to complex systems as long as CVs are sufficient to describe system&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Widely integrated as PLUMED and Collective Variable Module:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•PLUMED: AMBER, GROMACS, LAMMPS, NAMD, Q ESPRESSO, CP2K, OpenMM&lt;br /&gt;

• Well-tempered metadynamics allows for rapid exploration of phase space as the wells are filled quickly (at Vbias=0 the amount of bias deposited is relatively large, at Vbias=infinity the amount of bias deposited is infinitely small)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== What is Metadynamics? ==&lt;br /&gt;
•A simulation method normally applied as part of molecular dynamics&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Used to estimate free energy and state functions of systems where ergodicity (given enough time simulation will explore all possible configurations/areas of phase space) is hindered by energy landscape&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Similar to: Adaptively biased MD, Adaptive reaction coordinate forces, Local elevation umbrella sampling&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Suggested and developed by Alessandro Laio and Michele Parrinello&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How does Metadynamics work? ==&lt;br /&gt;
•Filling free energy wells with computational sand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Tracking grains of sand placed along collective variables&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Eventually the wells are completely full and you add sand to sand (known as convergence)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•The landscape is opposite of sum of all sand&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== How Metadynamics Really Work! ==&lt;br /&gt;
•Collective variables (s): set of variables which accurately describe the system&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•CV Examples: Dihedral angle for cis to trans butane, Distance for cation and anion&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Limitations: 3CV or 8CV with multiple replicas coupled together&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Exponential cost increase with each CV&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Grains of sand are bias potentials&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Bias potential Vbias is continuously updated by adding bias (more grains of sand)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Bias Potential Equation and Integral.png|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Vbias: bias potential&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•tsim: simulation time&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•s: collective variable&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•st: instantaneous collective variable at time t&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ω: bias deposition rate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•F: free energy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•C: constant (irrelevant)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Evaluating the integral of bias potential over the time duration of the simulation returns free energy F with a negative sign given enough time&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to make Metadynamics efficient and computationally viable? ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Efficient Bias Potential Equation.png|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
•Time is discretized into T time intervals&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•The Dirac delta function is replaced with a Gaussian function&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Time intervals (T), bias deposition rate (ω), and width of Gaussian functions (σ) are constants determined as inputs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Two types of Metadynamics ==&lt;br /&gt;
•Everything so far has been “original” or “plain” metadynamics&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Well-tempered metadynamics scales Gaussian height down as wells are filled&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Gaussian Height Scaling Equation.png|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
•w: Gaussian height&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ω: bias deposition rate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•Vb: estimate of free energy at current CV position and time step&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•ΔT: tunable parameter controls how quickly Gaussian height reduces as wells are filled&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Free Energy Equation Using Well-Tempered Metadynamics.png|thumb]]&lt;br /&gt;
•Final value of biasing potential is a scaled approximation of free energy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
• Well-tempered metadynamics allows for rapid exploration of phase space as the wells are filled quickly (at Vbias=0 the amount of bias deposited is large, at Vbias=infinity the amount of bias deposited is infinitely small)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
•As wells fill progressively smaller perturbations to bias potential lead to &amp;quot;smooth convergence&amp;quot; (less excess potential or sand)&lt;br /&gt;
