Multi-modal memetic framework for locating saddle points, with application to biomolecular systems : water clusters and ring-deficient covalently-bonded small molecules

Saddle points have important applications in different fields of science and engineering, including transition states identification, path-planning and robotics navigation. Identifying such points using memetic approaches is a field, remained yet to be well-investigated. In this dissertation, we pro...
