The Molecular Dynamics Performance JavaScript Model computes the trajectory of particles acted on by a Lennard-Jones force.  This simulation was designed to test the speed of JavaScript for a computationally intensive model.  The user can vary the number of particles, the number of frames per second displayed on the computer monitor, and the requested number of Verlet steps between frames.  The actual number of Verlet steps per frame is shown.  This number will be less than the requested number of steps on slow processors.

The Molecular Dynamics Performance  JS Model was developed using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) version 5.  It is distributed as a ready-to-run html page and requires only a browser with JavaScript support.
