MM3 Forcefield in MATLAB

The MM3 forcefield is one of the forcefields to be used for organic small-molecules. I used MATLAB to write an MD code which could simulate the motion of any organic structure. It requires complex geometric calculations in addition to equations of motion. The software also visualizes the molecule and performs basic bond stretch analysis.

General Plan Project

The general plan project allows anyone to search the text of the general plans for any county, city or town in California. It’s goal is to make government more transparent and also to help researchers spot trends within the data. As part of a summer project with another UC Davis student, we wrote the web app from scratch. I was in charge of performing the search and displaying the results both in a table and on a map.
