No, VMD has no simulation capability at all, as should be evident from even
a superficial look at the webpage or the documentation. However, there are
several free MD programs like NAMD, Gromacs or LAMMPS that can be used
instead and there are tutorials for them available online.

hi dears
I am using a manual on MD simulation witch has introduced QUANTA as the
program for molecular dynamic simulation. but i can't have access to this
software. can "vmd" be used instead? I mean do they have similar environment
and features, for example for molecular visualization and energy
minimization or analysis of conformation?
best regards.
