The effect of temperature control in SMD creep simulations of 1X segment with 1000 pN force. The Langevin dynamics with different damping coefficients is compared with the Lowe-Anderson thermostat and no temperature control. (a) The creep response using Lowe-Anderson thermostat is almost the same as when the temperature control is disabled. On the contrary, using Langevin dynamics adds significant viscosity to the system. (b) Temperature control ability is the same for all the thermostats and the temperature is kept approximately at 310K.
