The previous post hints about the contribution of Statistical mechanics in Molecular Dynamics. Looking at the definition of the words Statistics and Mechanics: Statistics is the science that deals with the collection, classification, analysis, and interpretation of numerical facts or data, and that, by use of mathematical theories of probability , imposes order and regularity on aggregates of more or less disparate elements. Mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with the action of forces on bodies and with motion , comprised of kinetics and statics. If in addition if one learn the definition of thermodynamics, a science concerned with relation of heat, work and energy and their interconversions, one can try to understand statistical mechanics/ thermodynamics and its connection with Molecular dynamics. Thus in Statistical mechanics/ thermodynamics one applies the mathematical theories of probabilit
