649   \section{Conclusions}
650 +
651 + We have presented a new Langevin algorithm by incorporating the
652 + hydrodynamics properties of arbitrary shaped molecules into an
653 + advanced symplectic integration scheme. The temperature control
654 + ability of this algorithm was demonstrated by a set of simulations
655 + with different viscosities. It was also shown to have significant
656 + advantage of producing rapid thermal equilibration over
657 + Nos\'{e}-Hoover method. Further studies in systems involving banana
658 + shaped molecules illustrated that the dynamic properties could be
659 + preserved by using this new algorithm as an implicit solvent model.
