Gaussian Network Model Theory
The Gaussian network model was first proposed in 1996 by Tirion at the atomic level and then one year later reconsidered at the amino-acid level by Bahar, Atilgan, Haliloglu and Erman. The model was influenced by work of PJ Flory on polymer networks and other works that utilized normal mode analysis and simplified harmonic potentials to study dynamics of proteins.
