Description
"""""""""""
Perform constant NVE integration to update position and velocity for
atoms in the group each timestep. V is volume; E is energy. This
creates a system trajectory consistent with the microcanonical
ensemble.
Perform plain time integration to update position and velocity for
atoms in the group each timestep. This creates a system trajectory
consistent with the microcanonical ensemble (NVE) provided there
are (full) periodic boundary conditions and no other "manipulations"
of the system (e.g. fixes that modify forces or velocities).
