The Collapse of Viruses: Graph-Based Percolation Theory in the Wolfram Language

Nicholas Brunk, PSM, MS

Graph-based percolation theory may be done in the Wolfram Language, to aid in the understanding of viruses, their disassembly and collapse. After forming predictions in the Wolfram Language, this analysis demonstrates which virus architectures are the most stable (and which the weakest) to random subunit dissociation, also illustrating the extent to which “molecular breadboard” techniques may be used in nanotechnology.
