    <dc:title>ViPA: A computer program for vector projection analysis of normal vibrational modes of molecules </dc:title>
    <dc:publisher>Mendeley Data</dc:publisher>
    <dc:description>Abstract 
 We describe a program designed to give a quantitative comparison of the normal vibrational modes of similar molecules by using calculated force constant matrices. The program uses the normal modes of one molecule to form a basis set to describe the normal modes of a second, similar molecule. Vibrational projection analysis, a specific application of vector projection analysis, is thus used to determine a percentage similarity by calculating the dot product between each of the 3N normal modes ...
 
 Title of program: ViPA
 Catalogue Id: ADID_v1_0
 
 Nature of problem 
 Provide a quantitative comparison of the normal vibrational modes [1] of similar molecules, including molecules related by a perturbation of atomic masses, chemical bonding, electronic states, non-covalent contacts or some other factor. This virtually automates the process of transferring normal mode descriptions from one molecule to another, structurally similar molecule.
