Description

The approach is characterized by the use of simplified models while accounting for omitted degrees of freedom only implicitly, i.e., by the use of stochastic differential equations.

Langevin equation	$M\frac{{\mathrm{d}}^{\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{d}{t}^2}\overrightarrow{q}=F(q)-\gamma \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}q+\sqrt{2\gamma k_{B}T}R(t)$
	$F$ represents force acting on a particle
	$M$ represents particle mass
	$R(t)$ represents white noise
	$T$ represents temperature
	$\gamma$ represents coefficient of friction
	$k_B$ represents Boltzmann constant
	$q$ represents particle position
	$t$ represents time
