One feature of the {\sc ssd} model is that it was parameterized for use with |
181 |
< |
the Ewald sum to handle long-range interactions. This would normally |
182 |
< |
be the best way of handling long-range interactions in systems that |
183 |

contain other point charges. However, our group has recently become |
184 |
< |
interested in systems with point dipoles as mimics for neutral, but |
185 |
< |
polarized regions on molecules (e.g. the zwitterionic head group |
186 |
< |
regions of phospholipids). If the system of interest does not contain |
187 |
< |
point charges, the Ewald sum and even particle-mesh Ewald become |
188 |
< |
computational bottlenecks. Their respective ideal $N^\frac{3}{2}$ and |
189 |
< |
$N\log N$ calculation scaling orders for $N$ particles can become |
190 |
< |
prohibitive when $N$ becomes large.\cite{Darden99} In applying this |
191 |
< |
water model in these types of systems, it would be useful to know its |
192 |
< |
properties and behavior under the more computationally efficient |
193 |

reaction field (RF) technique, or even with a simple cutoff. This |
194 |
< |
study addresses these issues by looking at the structural and |
195 |
< |
transport behavior of {\sc ssd} over a variety of temperatures with the |
196 |
< |
purpose of utilizing the RF correction technique. We then suggest |
197 |
< |
modifications to the parameters that result in more realistic bulk |
198 |

phase behavior. It should be noted that in a recent publication, some |
199 |

of the original investigators of the {\sc ssd} water model have suggested |
200 |

adjustments to the {\sc ssd} water model to address abnormal density |

{\sc ssd1}.\cite{Ichiye03} In what follows, we compare our |

reparamaterization of {\sc ssd} with both the original {\sc ssd} and {\sc ssd1} models |

\section{Methods} |

|
Long-range dipole-dipole interactions were accounted for in this study |
211 |
< |
by using either the reaction field method or by resorting to a simple |
212 |
< |
cubic switching function at a cutoff radius. The reaction field |
213 |
< |
method was actually first used in Monte Carlo simulations of liquid |
214 |
< |
water.\cite{Barker73} Under this method, the magnitude of the reaction |
215 |
< |
field acting on dipole $i$ is |

213 |

applications of a reaction field was actually in Monte Carlo |

simulations of liquid water.\cite{Barker73} Under this method, the |
215 |
> |
magnitude of the reaction field acting on dipole $i$ is |
216 |
|
\begin{equation} |
217 |
|
\mathcal{E}_{i} = \frac{2(\varepsilon_{s} - 1)}{2\varepsilon_{s} + 1} |
218 |
|
\frac{1}{r_{c}^{3}} \sum_{j\in{\mathcal{R}}} {\bf \mu}_{j} s(r_{ij}), |
226 |
|
total energy by particle $i$ is given by $-\frac{1}{2}{\bf |
227 |
|
\mu}_{i}\cdot\mathcal{E}_{i}$ and the torque on dipole $i$ by ${\bf |
228 |
|
\mu}_{i}\times\mathcal{E}_{i}$.\cite{AllenTildesley} Use of the reaction |
229 |
< |
field is known to alter the bulk orientational properties, such as the |
230 |
< |
dielectric relaxation time. There is particular sensitivity of this |
231 |
< |
property on changes in the length of the cutoff |
232 |
< |
radius.\cite{Berendsen98} This variable behavior makes reaction field |
233 |
< |
a less attractive method than the Ewald sum. However, for very large |
234 |
< |
systems, the computational benefit of reaction field is dramatic. |

We have also performed a companion set of simulations {\it without} a |
237 |
|
surrounding dielectric (i.e. using a simple cubic switching function |
238 |
|
at the cutoff radius), and as a result we have two reparamaterizations |
239 |

of {\sc ssd} which could be used either with or without the reaction field |

turned on. |

Simulations to obtain the preferred densities of the models were |
243 |
|
performed in the isobaric-isothermal (NPT) ensemble, while all |
247 |
|
implemented using an integral thermostat and barostat as outlined by |
248 |
|
Hoover.\cite{Hoover85,Hoover86} All molecules were treated as |
249 |
|
non-linear rigid bodies. Vibrational constraints are not necessary in |
250 |
< |
simulations of {\sc ssd}, because there are no explicit hydrogen atoms, and |
251 |
< |
thus no molecular vibrational modes need to be considered. |

Integration of the equations of motion was carried out using the |
254 |
|
symplectic splitting method proposed by Dullweber, Leimkuhler, and |
255 |
< |
McLachlan ({\sc dlm}).\cite{Dullweber1997} Our reason for selecting this |
256 |
< |
integrator centers on poor energy conservation of rigid body dynamics |
257 |
< |
using traditional quaternion integration.\cite{Evans77,Evans77b} In |
258 |
< |
typical microcanonical ensemble simulations, the energy drift when |
259 |
< |
using quaternions was substantially greater than when using the {\sc dlm} |
260 |
< |
method (fig. \ref{timestep}). This steady drift in the total energy |
261 |

has also been observed by Kol {\it et al.}\cite{Laird97} |

|
264 |
|
The key difference in the integration method proposed by Dullweber |
265 |
|
\emph{et al.} is that the entire rotation matrix is propagated from |
274 |
|
of matrix evaluations to update the rotation |
275 |
|
matrix.\cite{Dullweber1997} These matrix rotations are more costly |
276 |
|
than the simpler arithmetic quaternion propagation. With the same time |
277 |
< |
step, a 1000 {\sc ssd} particle simulation shows an average 7\% increase in |
278 |
< |
computation time using the {\sc dlm} method in place of quaternions. The |
279 |
< |
additional expense per step is justified when one considers the |
280 |
< |
ability to use time steps that are nearly twice as large under {\sc dlm} |
281 |
< |
than would be usable under quaternion dynamics. The energy |
282 |
< |
conservation of the two methods using a number of different time steps |
283 |

is illustrated in figure |

In figure \ref{timestep}, the resulting energy drift at various time |

steps for both the {\sc dlm} and quaternion integration schemes is compared. |

All of the 1000 {\sc ssd} particle simulations started with the same |
301 |

configuration, and the only difference was the method used to handle |
302 |
< |
orientational motion. At time steps of 0.1 and 0.5 fs, both methods |
303 |

for propagating the orientational degrees of freedom conserve energy |
304 |

fairly well, with the quaternion method showing a slight energy drift |
305 |

over time in the 0.5 fs time step simulation. At time steps of 1 and 2 |
306 |

fs, the energy conservation benefits of the {\sc dlm} method are clearly |

demonstrated. Thus, while maintaining the same degree of energy |

conservation, one can take considerably longer time steps, leading to |

an overall reduction in computation time. |

It has been observed that liquid state densities in water are |
398 |
|
dependent on the cutoff radius used both with and without the use of |
399 |
|
reaction field.\cite{Berendsen98} In order to address the possible |
400 |
|
effect of cutoff radius, simulations were performed with a dipolar |
401 |
< |
cutoff radius of 12.0 \AA\ to complement the previous {\sc ssd} simulations, |
402 |

all performed with a cutoff of 9.0 \AA. All of the resulting densities |

overlapped within error and showed no significant trend toward lower |
404 |

or higher densities as a function of cutoff radius, for simulations |

both with and without reaction field. These results indicate that |

there is no major benefit in choosing a longer cutoff radius in |

The key feature to recognize in figure \ref{dense1} is the density |
412 |
< |
scaling of {\sc ssd} relative to other common models at any given |
413 |
< |
temperature. {\sc ssd} assumes a lower density than any of the other listed |
414 |

models at the same pressure, behavior which is especially apparent at |
415 |

temperatures greater than 300 K. Lower than expected densities have |

to test the effect of the reaction field on the density of the |

systems, the simulations were repeated without a reaction field |

Additional analysis of the melting process was performed using |

two-dimensional structure and dipole angle correlations. Expressions |
522 |
|
for these correlations are as follows: |
555 |

$g_\mathrm{OO}(r)$.\cite{Ichiye96} At low temperatures, the second |

solvation shell peak appears to have two distinct components that |

this split character alters to show the leading 4~\AA\ peak dominated |

by equatorial anti-parallel dipole orientations. There is also a |

tightly bunched group of axially arranged dipoles that most likely |
561 |
|
consist of the smaller fraction of aligned dipole pairs. The trailing |

component of the split peak at 5~\AA\ is dominated by aligned dipoles |
563 |

|
first solvation shell. This evidence indicates that the dipole pair |
565 |
|
interaction begins to dominate outside of the range of the dipolar |
566 |
|
repulsion term. The energetically favorable dipole arrangements |
567 |

populate the region immediately outside this repulsion region (around |

From these findings, the split second peak is primarily the product of |
573 |
|
the dipolar repulsion term of the sticky potential. In fact, the inner |
574 |

peak can be pushed out and merged with the outer split peak just by |
575 |
|
extending the switching function ($s^\prime(r_{ij})$) from its normal |

correction is not recommended for improving the liquid structure, |

The existence of a novel low-density ice structure that is preferred |
