Problem: Need to represent the
correct ensemble distribution for the
specified temperature and pressure.
Solution: Slightly modify the
Newtonian equations in order to take
into account the temperature (and
pressure) dependency of the molecular
system.

Mathematical Ingredients
One final ingredient for the bio-chemical
system, the hemodynamic force
experienced by the leukocyte is modeled
by adding an additional force…this
method is called steered molecular
dynamics.
