A model Hamiltonian is advanced which provides a computationally efficient means of investigating nuclear dynamics. The Hamiltonian includes both Coulomb and isospin-dependent terms, and incorporates antisymmetrization effects through a momentum-dependent potential. Unlike many other classical or semiclassical models, the nuclei of this simulation have a well-defined ground state with a nonvanishing 〈p2〉. It is shown that the binding energies per nucleon and rms radii of these ground states are close to the measured values over a wide mass range.
