I believe the name targeted MD is already taken:
Schlitter, J., et al. "Targeted molecular dynamics simulation of
conformational change-application to the T↔ R transition in insulin."
Molecular Simulation 10.2-6 (1993): 291-308.
In my opinion, Steered MD might be better since although steered MD is
often used with Jarzynski, it doesn't necessarily have to.
But you should check the references.
