65     \section{Introduction}
66     Explain a little bit about ice Ih, point group stuff.
67    
68     Mention previous work done / on going work by other people. Haymet and Rick
69     seem to be investigating how the interfaces is perturbed by the presence of
70     ions. This is the conlcusion of a recent publication of the basal and
71     prismatic facets of ice Ih, now presenting the pyramidal and secondary
72     prism facets under shear.

91     \end{figure}
92    
93     \subsection{Pyramidal and secondary prism system construction}
94    
95     The construction of the pyramidal and secondary prism systems follows that of
96     the basal and prismatic systems presented elsewhere\cite{Louden13}, however
97 plouden 4194 the ice crystals and water boxes were equilibrated and combined at 50K
98     instead of 225K. The ice / water systems generated were then equilibrated
99     to 225K. The resulting pyramidal system was
100 plouden 4192 $37.47 \times 29.50 \times 93.02$ \AA\ with 1216
101     SPC/E molecules in the ice slab, and 2203 in the liquid phase. The secondary
102     prism system generated was $71.87 \times 31.66 \times 161.55$ \AA\ with 3840
103     SPC/E molecules in the ice slab and 8176 molecules in the liquid phase.
104    
105     \subsection{Computational details}
106     % Do we need to justify the sims at 225K?
107     % No crystal growth or shrinkage over 2 successive 1 ns NVT simulations for
108     % either the pyramidal or sec. prism ice/water systems.
109    
110     The computational details performed here were equivalent to those reported
111     in the previous publication\cite{Louden13}. The only changes made to the
112     previously reported procedure were the following. VSS-RNEMD moves were
113 plouden 4194 attempted every 2 fs instead of every 50 fs. This was done to minimize
114     the magnitude of each individual VSS-RNEMD perturbation to the system.
115 plouden 4192
116     All pyramidal simulations were performed under the NVT ensamble except those
117     during which statistics were accumulated for the orientational correlation
118     function, which were performed under the NVE ensamble. All secondary prism
119     simulations were performed under the NVE ensamble.
120    
121     \section{Results and discussion}
122 plouden 4194 \subsection{Interfacial width}
123     In the literature there is good agreement that between the solid ice and
124     the bulk water, there exists a region of 'slush-like' water molecules.
125     In this region, the water molecules are structured differently and
126     behave differently than those of the solid ice or the bulk water.
127     The characteristics of this region have been defined by both structural
128     and dynamic properties; and width has been measured by the change of these
129     properties from their bulk liquid values to those of the solid ice.
130     Examples of these properties include the density, the diffusion constant, and
131     the translational order profile. \cite{Bryk02,Karim90,Gay02,Hayword01,Hayword02,Karim88}
132 plouden 4192
133 plouden 4194 Since the VSS-RNEMD moves perturb the velocities of the water molecules in
134     the systems, parameters that depend on the translational motion may give
135     faulty results. A stuructural parameter will be less effected by the
136     VSS-RNEMD perturbations to the system. Due to this we have used the
137     local order tetrahedral parameter, which was originally described by
138     Kumar\cite{Kumar09} and Errington\cite{Errington01} and explained in our
139     previous publication\cite{Louden13} in relation to an ice/water system.
140    
141     Each of the systems were divided into 100 artificial bins along the
142     $z$-dimension, and the local tetrahedral order parameter, $q(z)$, was
143     time-averaged for each of the bins, resulting in a tetrahedrality profile of
144     the system. These profiles are shown across the $z$-dimension of the systems
145     in panel $a$ of Figures \ref{fig:spComic}
146     and \ref{fig:pyrComic} (black circles). The $q(z)$ function has a range of
147     (0,1), where a larger value indicates a more tetrahedral environment.
148     The $q(z)$ for the bulk liquid was found to be $\approx $0.77, while values of
149     $\approx $0.92 were more common for the ice. The tetrahedrality profiles were
150     fit using a hyperbolic tangent\cite{Louden13} designed to smoothly fit the
151     bulk to ice
152     transition, while accounting for the thermal influence on the profile by the
153     kinetic energy exchanges of the VSS-RNEMD moves. In panels $b$ and $c$, the
154     imposed thermal and velocity gradients can be seen. The verticle dotted
155     lines traversing all three panels indicate the midpoints of the interface
156     as determined by the hyperbolic tangent fit of the tetrahedrality profiles.
157    
158 plouden 4192 From fitting the tetrahedrality profiles for each of the 0.5 nanosecond
159 plouden 4194 simulations (panel c of Figures \ref{fig:spComic} and \ref{fig:pyrComic})
160 plouden 4192 by Eq. 6\cite{Louden13},we find the interfacial width for the pyramidal and
161     secondary prism to be $3.2 \pm 0.2$ and $3.2 \pm 0.2$ \AA\ , respectively,
162     with no applied momentum flux. Over the range of shear rates investigated,
163     $0.6 \pm 0.2 \mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow 5.6 \pm 0.4 \mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for
164     the pyramidal system and $0.9 \pm 0.3 \mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow 5.4 \pm 0.1
165     \mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the secondary prism, we found no significant change in
166     the interfacial width. This follows our previous findings of the basal and
167     prismatic systems, in which the interfacial width was invarient of the
168     shear rate of the ice. The interfacial width of the quiescent basal and
169     prismatic systems was found to be $3.2 \pm 0.4$ \AA\ and $3.6 \pm 0.2$ \AA\
170     respectively. Over the range of shear rates investigated, $0.6 \pm 0.3
171     \mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow 5.3 \pm 0.5 \mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the basal
172     system and $0.9 \pm 0.2 \mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow 4.5 \pm 0.1
173 plouden 4194 \mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ for the prismatic.
174    
175     These results indicate that the surface structure of the exposed ice crystal
176     has little to no effect on how far into the bulk the ice-like structural
177     ordering is. Also, it appears that the interface is not structurally effected
178     by shearing the ice through water.
179    
180    
181 plouden 4192 \subsection{Orientational dynamics}
182 plouden 4194 To investigate the dynamics of the water molecules across the interface, the
183     systems were divided into $n$ bins, each $\approx$ 3 \AA\ wide in $z$, and
184     the orientational time
185     correlation function was computed for each of the $n$ bins. This was done by
186     averaging the second order Legendre polynomial of the bisecting HOH vector
187     dotted with itself at an initial time and some time later, over all molecules
188     in the bin.
