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.

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 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 $37.47 \times 29.50 \times 93.02$ \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 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
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 \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
133 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 From fitting the tetrahedrality profiles for each of the 0.5 nanosecond
159 simulations (panel c of Figures \ref{fig:spComic} and \ref{fig:pyrComic})
160 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 $0.9 \pm 0.2 \mathrm{ms}^{-1} \rightarrow 4.5 \pm 0.1
173 \mathrm{ms}^{-1}$ 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

181 \subsection{Orientational dynamics}
182 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.

220 shown by the black and red lines respectively. The upper two panels show that
221 translational and hydrogen bond making and breaking events slow down
222 through the interface while approaching the ice slab. The bottom most panel
223 shows the librational motion of the water molecules speeding up approaching
224 the ice block due to the confined region of space allowed for the molecules
225 to move in.}
