The basic unit of an {\sc oopse} simulation is the atom. The parameters |
7 |
< |
describing the atom are generalized to make the atom as flexible a |
8 |
< |
representation as possible. They may represent specific atoms of an |
9 |
< |
element, or be used for collections of atoms such as a methyl |
10 |
< |
group. The atoms are also capable of having a directional component |
11 |
< |
associated with them, often in the form of a dipole. Charges on atoms |
12 |
< |
are not currently suporrted by {\sc oopse}. |

Atoms can be collected into secondary srtructures such as rigid bodies |
26 |
+ |
or molecules. The molecule is a way for {\sc oopse} to keep track of |
27 |
+ |
the atoms in a simulation in logical manner. Molecular units store the |
28 |
+ |
identities of all the atoms associated with themselves, and are |
29 |
+ |
responsible for the evaluation of their own internal interactions |
30 |
+ |
(\emph{i.e.}~bonds, bends, and torsions). Scheme \ref{sch:AtmMole} |
31 |
+ |
shws how one creates a molecule in the \texttt{.mdl} files. The |
32 |
+ |
position of the atoms given in the declaration are relative to the |
33 |
+ |
origin of the molecule, and is used when creating a system containing |
34 |
+ |
the molecule. |
35 |
+ |
|
36 |
+ |
As stated previously, one of the features that sets {\sc oopse} apart |
37 |
+ |
from most of the current molecular simulation packages is the ability |
38 |
+ |
to handle rigid body dynamics. Rigid bodies are non-spherical |
39 |
+ |
particles or collections of particles that have a constant internal |
40 |
+ |
potential and move collectively.\cite{Goldstein01} They are not |
41 |
+ |
included in most simulation packages because of the requirement to |
42 |
+ |
propagate the orientational degrees of freedom. Until recently, |
43 |
+ |
integrators which propagate orientational motion have been lacking. |
44 |
+ |
|
45 |
+ |
Moving a rigid body involves determination of both the force and |
46 |
+ |
torque applied by the surroundings, which directly affect the |
47 |
+ |
translational and rotational motion in turn. In order to accumulate |
48 |
+ |
the total force on a rigid body, the external forces and torques must |
49 |
+ |
first be calculated for all the internal particles. The total force on |
50 |
+ |
the rigid body is simply the sum of these external forces. |
51 |
+ |
Accumulation of the total torque on the rigid body is more complex |
52 |
+ |
than the force in that it is the torque applied on the center of mass |
53 |
+ |
that dictates rotational motion. The torque on rigid body {\it i} is |
54 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
55 |
+ |
\boldsymbol{\tau}_i= |
56 |
+ |
\sum_{a}(\mathbf{r}_{ia}-\mathbf{r}_i)\times \mathbf{f}_{ia} |
57 |
+ |
+ \boldsymbol{\tau}_{ia}, |
58 |
+ |
\label{eq:torqueAccumulate} |
59 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
60 |
+ |
where $\boldsymbol{\tau}_i$ and $\mathbf{r}_i$ are the torque on and |
61 |
+ |
position of the center of mass respectively, while $\mathbf{f}_{ia}$, |
62 |
+ |
$\mathbf{r}_{ia}$, and $\boldsymbol{\tau}_{ia}$ are the force on, |
63 |
+ |
position of, and torque on the component particles of the rigid body. |
64 |
+ |
|
65 |
+ |
The summation of the total torque is done in the body fixed axis of |
66 |
+ |
the rigid body. In order to move between the space fixed and body |
67 |
+ |
fixed coordinate axes, parameters describing the orientation must be |
68 |
+ |
maintained for each rigid body. At a minimum, the rotation matrix |
69 |
+ |
(\textbf{A}) can be described by the three Euler angles ($\phi, |
70 |
+ |
\theta,$ and $\psi$), where the elements of \textbf{A} are composed of |
71 |
+ |
trigonometric operations involving $\phi, \theta,$ and |
72 |
+ |
$\psi$.\cite{Goldstein01} In order to avoid numerical instabilities |
73 |
+ |
inherent in using the Euler angles, the four parameter ``quaternion'' |
74 |
+ |
scheme is often used. The elements of \textbf{A} can be expressed as |
75 |
+ |
arithmetic operations involving the four quaternions ($q_0, q_1, q_2,$ |
76 |
+ |
and $q_3$).\cite{allen87:csl} Use of quaternions also leads to |
77 |
+ |
performance enhancements, particularly for very small |
78 |
+ |
systems.\cite{Evans77} |
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ |
{\sc oopse} utilizes a relatively new scheme that propagates the |
81 |
+ |
entire nine parameter rotation matrix internally. Further discussion |
82 |
+ |
on this choice can be found in Sec.~\ref{sec:integrate}. An example |
83 |
+ |
definition of a riged body can be seen in Scheme |
84 |
+ |
\ref{sch:rigidBody}. The positions in the atom definitions are the |
85 |
+ |
placements of the atoms relative to the origin of the rigid body, |
86 |
+ |
which itself has a position relative to the origin of the molecule. |

\subsection{\label{sec:LJPot}The Lennard Jones Potential} |
113 |
+ |
|
114 |
+ |
The most basic force field implemented in {\sc oopse} is the |
115 |
+ |
Lennard-Jones potential, which mimics the van der Waals interaction at |
116 |
+ |
long distances, and uses an empirical repulsion at short |
117 |
+ |
distances. The Lennard-Jones potential is given by: |
118 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
119 |
+ |
V_{\text{LJ}}(r_{ij}) = |
120 |
+ |
4\epsilon_{ij} \biggl[ |
121 |
+ |
\biggl(\frac{\sigma_{ij}}{r_{ij}}\biggr)^{12} |
122 |
+ |
- \biggl(\frac{\sigma_{ij}}{r_{ij}}\biggr)^{6} |
123 |
+ |
\biggr] |
124 |
+ |
\label{eq:lennardJonesPot} |
125 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
126 |
+ |
Where $r_{ij}$ is the distance between particles $i$ and $j$, |
127 |
+ |
$\sigma_{ij}$ scales the length of the interaction, and |
128 |
+ |
$\epsilon_{ij}$ scales the well depth of the potential. Scheme |
129 |
+ |
\ref{sch:LJFF} gives and example partial \texttt{.bass} file that |
130 |
+ |
shows a system of 108 Ar particles simulated with the Lennard-Jones |
131 |
+ |
force field. |

157 |

|
158 |
+ |
Because this potential is calculated between all pairs, the force |
159 |
+ |
evaluation can become computationally expensive for large systems. To |
160 |
+ |
keep the pair evaluations to a manageable number, {\sc oopse} employs |
161 |
+ |
a cut-off radius.\cite{allen87:csl} The cutoff radius is set to be |
162 |
+ |
$2.5\sigma_{ii}$, where $\sigma_{ii}$ is the largest Lennard-Jones |
163 |
+ |
length parameter present in the simulation. Truncating the calculation |
164 |
+ |
at $r_{\text{cut}}$ introduces a discontinuity into the potential |
165 |
+ |
energy. To offset this discontinuity, the energy value at |
166 |
+ |
$r_{\text{cut}}$ is subtracted from the potential. This causes the |
167 |
+ |
potential to go to zero smoothly at the cut-off radius. |
168 |
+ |
|
169 |
+ |
Interactions between dissimilar particles requires the generation of |
170 |
+ |
cross term parameters for $\sigma$ and $\epsilon$. These are |
171 |
+ |
calculated through the Lorentz-Berthelot mixing |
172 |
+ |
rules:\cite{allen87:csl} |
173 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
174 |
+ |
\sigma_{ij} = \frac{1}{2}[\sigma_{ii} + \sigma_{jj}] |
175 |
+ |
\label{eq:sigmaMix} |
176 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
177 |
+ |
and |
178 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
179 |
+ |
\epsilon_{ij} = \sqrt{\epsilon_{ii} \epsilon_{jj}} |
180 |
+ |
\label{eq:epsilonMix} |

With this goal in mind, we have eliminated all point charges. Charge |

distributions were reduced to Lennard-Jones interaction sites. This |

$\frac{1}{r}$ to $\frac{1}{r^3}$, allowing us to avoid the |

As an example, lipid head groups in {\sc duff} are represented as point |

dipole interaction sites.PC and PE Lipid head groups are typically |
205 |
< |
zwitterionic in nature, with charges separated by as much as |
206 |

6~$\mbox{\AA}$. By placing a dipole of 20.6~Debye at the head group |
207 |

center of mass, our model mimics the head group of PC.\cite{Cevc87} |

The water model we use to complement the dipoles of the lipids is |
223 |

the soft sticky dipole (SSD) model of Ichiye \emph{et |
224 |

al.}\cite{liu96:new_model} This model is discussed in greater detail |
59 |
< |
in Sec.~\ref{sec:SSD}. In all cases we reduce water to a single |
60 |
< |
Lennard-Jones interaction site. The site also contains a dipole to |
61 |
< |
mimic the partial charges on the hydrogens and the oxygen. However, |
62 |
< |
what makes the SSD model unique is the inclusion of a tetrahedral |
63 |
< |
short range potential to recover the hydrogen bonding of water, an |
64 |
< |
important factor when modeling bilayers, as it has been shown that |
65 |

hydrogen bond network formation is a leading contribution to the |

entropic driving force towards lipid bilayer formation.\cite{Cevc87} |

positively-charged core ion $i$ into a linear superposition of |
519 |

spherically averaged atomic electron densities given by |
520 |

$\rho_{i}$. $\phi_{ij}$ is a primarily repulsive pairwise interaction |
521 |

between atoms $i$ and $j$. In the original formulation of |

There is a cutoff distance, $r_{cut}$, which limits the |

summations in the {\sc eam} equation to the few dozen atoms |

\textit{Periodic boundary conditions} are widely used to simulate truly |
536 |
> |
macroscopic systems with a relatively small number of particles. The |
537 |
> |
simulation box is replicated throughout space to form an infinite lattice. |
538 |
> |
During the simulation, when a particle moves in the primary cell, its image in |
539 |
> |
other boxes move in exactly the same direction with exactly the same |
540 |
> |
orientation.Thus, as a particle leaves the primary cell, one of its images |
541 |
> |
will enter through the opposite face.If the simulation box is large enough to |
542 |
> |
avoid \textquotedblleft feeling\textquotedblright\ the symmetries of the |
543 |
> |
periodic lattice, surface effects can be ignored. Cubic, orthorhombic and |
544 |
> |
parallelepiped are the available periodic cells In OOPSE. We use a matrix to |
545 |
> |
describe the property of the simulation box. Therefore, both the size and |
546 |
> |
shape of the simulation box can be changed during the simulation. The |
547 |
> |
transformation from box space vector $\mathbf{s}$ to its corresponding real |
548 |
> |
space vector $\mathbf{r}$ is defined by |
549 |
|
\begin{equation} |
550 |
< |
w(\mathbf{r}_{ij},\boldsymbol{\Omega}_i,\boldsymbol{\Omega}_j)=\sin\theta_{ij}\sin2\theta_{ij}\cos2\phi_{ij}, |
550 |

\mathbf{r}=\underline{\mathbf{H}}\cdot\mathbf{s}% |

\end{equation} |

|
553 |

|
554 |
+ |
where $H=(h_{x},h_{y},h_{z})$ is a transformation matrix made up of the three |
555 |
+ |
box axis vectors. $h_{x},h_{y}$ and $h_{z}$ represent the three sides of the |
556 |
+ |
simulation box respectively. |
557 |

|
558 |

To find the minimum image of a vector $\mathbf{r}$, we convert the real vector |
559 |
+ |
to its corresponding vector in box space first, \bigskip% |
560 |
|
\begin{equation} |
561 |
< |
w^\prime(\mathbf{r}_{ij},\boldsymbol{\Omega}_i,\boldsymbol{\Omega}_j) = (\cos\theta_{ij}-0.6)^2(\cos\theta_{ij}+0.8)^2-w^0, |
561 |
> |
\mathbf{s}=\underline{\mathbf{H}}^{-1}\cdot\mathbf{r}% |
562 |
|
\end{equation} |
563 |
< |
where $w^0 = 0.07715$. The $w$ function is the tetrahedral attractive |
564 |
< |
term that promotes hydrogen bonding orientations within the first |
565 |
< |
solvation shell, and $w^\prime$ is a dipolar repulsion term that |
566 |
< |
repels unrealistic dipolar arrangements within the first solvation |
567 |
< |
shell. A more detailed description of the functional parts and |
254 |
< |
variables in this potential can be found in other |
255 |
< |
articles.\cite{liu96:new_model,chandra99:ssd_md} |

And then, each element of $\mathbf{s}$ is wrapped to lie between -0.5 to 0.5, |

Since SSD is a one-site point dipole model, the force calculations are |
258 |
< |
simplified significantly from a computational standpoint, in that the |
259 |
< |
number of long-range interactions is dramatically reduced. In the |
260 |
< |
original Monte Carlo simulations using this model, Ichiye \emph{et |
261 |
< |
al.} reported a calculation speed up of up to an order of magnitude |
262 |
< |
over other comparable models while maintaining the structural behavior |
263 |
< |
of water.\cite{liu96:new_model} In the original molecular dynamics studies of |
264 |
< |
SSD, it was shown that it actually improves upon the prediction of |
265 |
< |
water's dynamical properties over TIP3P and SPC/E.\cite{chandra99:ssd_md} |

Recent constant pressure simulations revealed issues in the original |
572 |
< |
SSD model that led to lower than expected densities at all target |
573 |
< |
pressures.\cite{Ichiye03,Gezelter04} Reparameterizations of the |
574 |
< |
original SSD have resulted in improved density behavior, as well as |
575 |
< |
alterations in the water structure and transport behavior. {\sc oopse} is |
576 |
< |
easily modified to impliment these new potential parameter sets for |
577 |
< |
the derivative water models: SSD1, SSD/E, and SSD/RF. All of the |
578 |
< |
variable parameters are listed in the accompanying BASS file, and |
275 |

these parameters simply need to be changed to the updated values. |
