What Does BMV Stand For?

BMV stands for Berthier Millie Veillard Method Semiempirical MO SCF

The BMV method, or Berthier Millie Veillard Method Semiempirical MO SCF, is a computational approach in quantum chemistry that combines semiempirical molecular orbital (MO) techniques with self-consistent field (SCF) calculations. It is designed to efficiently predict molecular properties and behaviors by simplifying the computational requirements typical of more complex quantum mechanical methods while maintaining a level of accuracy suitable for diverse chemical applications. The BMV method is particularly useful for studying large molecular systems where traditional ab initio methods may be computationally prohibitive.
