In order to test \sawsim, I've developed a test suite (distributed with \sawsim) that compares simulated unfolding force histograms with analytical histograms for a number of situations -where solving for the analytical histogram is possible. +where solving for the analytical histogram is possible. In the +following subsection, I'll work out the theoretical unfolding force +distribution for a number of tractable cases. The sawsim test suite +generates simulated unfolding curves for these tractable cases +(e.g. single domain Bell model unfolding with a constant loading +rate), and compares the simulated unfolding force histograms with the +expected theoretical distribution. The simulated histograms match the +theoretical distributions for each combination of models regardless of +the parameters you feed into the models, so we can be confident that +\sawsim\ correctly implements at those models. The instantaneous likelyhood of a protein unfolding is given by $\deriv{F}{N_u}$, and the unfolding histogram is merely this function
