1788 \subsection{\label{introSection:frictionTensor} Friction Tensor}
1789 Theoretically, the friction kernel can be determined using velocity
1790 autocorrelation function. However, this approach become impractical
1791 when the system become more and more complicate. Instead, various
1792 approaches based on hydrodynamics have been developed to calculate
1793 the friction coefficients. The friction effect is isotropic in
1794 Equation, $\zeta$ can be taken as a scalar. In general, friction
1795 tensor $\Xi$ is a $6\times 6$ matrix given by
1796 \[
1797 \Xi  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1798   {\Xi _{}^{tt} } & {\Xi _{}^{rt} }  \\
1799   {\Xi _{}^{tr} } & {\Xi _{}^{rr} }  \\
1800 \end{array}} \right).
1801 \]
1802 Here, $ {\Xi^{tt} }$ and $ {\Xi^{rr} }$ are translational friction
1803 tensor and rotational resistance (friction) tensor respectively,
1804 while ${\Xi^{tr} }$ is translation-rotation coupling tensor and $
1805 {\Xi^{rt} }$ is rotation-translation coupling tensor. When a
1806 particle moves in a fluid, it may experience friction force or
1807 torque along the opposite direction of the velocity or angular
1808 velocity,
1809 \[
1810 \left( \begin{array}{l}
1811 F_R  \\
1812 \tau _R  \\
1813 \end{array} \right) =  - \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1814   {\Xi ^{tt} } & {\Xi ^{rt} }  \\
1815   {\Xi ^{tr} } & {\Xi ^{rr} }  \\
1816 \end{array}} \right)\left( \begin{array}{l}
1817 v \\
1818 w \\
1819 \end{array} \right)
1820 \]
1821 where $F_r$ is the friction force and $\tau _R$ is the friction
1822 toque.
1823
1824 \subsubsection{\label{introSection:resistanceTensorRegular}The Resistance Tensor for Regular Shape}
1825
1826 For a spherical particle, the translational and rotational friction
1827 constant can be calculated from Stoke's law,
1828 \[
1829 \Xi ^{tt}  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1830   {6\pi \eta R} & 0 & 0  \\
1831   0 & {6\pi \eta R} & 0  \\
1832   0 & 0 & {6\pi \eta R}  \\
1833 \end{array}} \right)
1834 \]
1835 and
1836 \[
1837 \Xi ^{rr}  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1838   {8\pi \eta R^3 } & 0 & 0  \\
1839   0 & {8\pi \eta R^3 } & 0  \\
1840   0 & 0 & {8\pi \eta R^3 }  \\
1841 \end{array}} \right)
1842 \]
1843 where $\eta$ is the viscosity of the solvent and $R$ is the
1844 hydrodynamics radius.
1845
1846 Other non-spherical shape, such as cylinder and ellipsoid
1847 \textit{etc}, are widely used as reference for developing new
1848 hydrodynamics theory, because their properties can be calculated
1849 exactly. In 1936, Perrin extended Stokes's law to general ellipsoid,
1850 also called a triaxial ellipsoid, which is given in Cartesian
1851 coordinates by\cite{Perrin1934, Perrin1936}
1852 \[
1853 \frac{{x^2 }}{{a^2 }} + \frac{{y^2 }}{{b^2 }} + \frac{{z^2 }}{{c^2
1854 }} = 1
1855 \]
1856 where the semi-axes are of lengths $a$, $b$, and $c$. Unfortunately,
1857 due to the complexity of the elliptic integral, only the ellipsoid
1858 with the restriction of two axes having to be equal, \textit{i.e.}
1859 prolate($ a \ge b = c$) and oblate ($ a < b = c $), can be solved
1860 exactly. Introducing an elliptic integral parameter $S$ for prolate,
1861 \[
1862 S = \frac{2}{{\sqrt {a^2  - b^2 } }}\ln \frac{{a + \sqrt {a^2  - b^2
1863 } }}{b},
1864 \]
1865 and oblate,
1866 \[
1867 S = \frac{2}{{\sqrt {b^2  - a^2 } }}arctg\frac{{\sqrt {b^2  - a^2 }
1868 }}{a}
1869 \],
1870 one can write down the translational and rotational resistance
1871 tensors
1872 \[
1873 \begin{array}{l}
1874 \Xi _a^{tt}  = 16\pi \eta \frac{{a^2  - b^2 }}{{(2a^2  - b^2 )S - 2a}} \\
1875 \Xi _b^{tt}  = \Xi _c^{tt}  = 32\pi \eta \frac{{a^2  - b^2 }}{{(2a^2  - 3b^2 )S + 2a}} \\
1876 \end{array},
1877 \]
1878 and
1879 \[
1880 \begin{array}{l}
1881 \Xi _a^{rr}  = \frac{{32\pi }}{3}\eta \frac{{(a^2  - b^2 )b^2 }}{{2a - b^2 S}} \\
1882 \Xi _b^{rr}  = \Xi _c^{rr}  = \frac{{32\pi }}{3}\eta \frac{{(a^4  - b^4 )}}{{(2a^2  - b^2 )S - 2a}} \\

1886 \subsubsection{\label{introSection:resistanceTensorRegularArbitrary}The Resistance Tensor for Arbitrary Shape}
1887
1888 Unlike spherical and other regular shaped molecules, there is not
1889 analytical solution for friction tensor of any arbitrary shaped
1890 rigid molecules. The ellipsoid of revolution model and general
1891 triaxial ellipsoid model have been used to approximate the
1892 hydrodynamic properties of rigid bodies. However, since the mapping
1893 from all possible ellipsoidal space, $r$-space, to all possible
1894 combination of rotational diffusion coefficients, $D$-space is not
1895 unique\cite{Wegener1979} as well as the intrinsic coupling between
1896 translational and rotational motion of rigid body, general ellipsoid
1897 is not always suitable for modeling arbitrarily shaped rigid
1898 molecule. A number of studies have been devoted to determine the
1899 friction tensor for irregularly shaped rigid bodies using more
1900 advanced method where the molecule of interest was modeled by
1901 combinations of spheres(beads)\cite{Carrasco1999} and the
1902 hydrodynamics properties of the molecule can be calculated using the
1903 hydrodynamic interaction tensor. Let us consider a rigid assembly of
1904 $N$ beads immersed in a continuous medium. Due to hydrodynamics
1905 interaction, the ``net'' velocity of $i$th bead, $v'_i$ is different
1906 than its unperturbed velocity $v_i$,
1907 \[
1908 v'_i  = v_i  - \sum\limits_{j \ne i} {T_{ij} F_j }
1909 \]
1910 where $F_i$ is the frictional force, and $T_{ij}$ is the
1911 hydrodynamic interaction tensor. The friction force of $i$th bead is
1912 proportional to its ``net'' velocity
1913 \begin{equation}
1914 F_i  = \zeta _i v_i  - \zeta _i \sum\limits_{j \ne i} {T_{ij} F_j }.
1915 \label{introEquation:tensorExpression}
1916 \end{equation}
1917 This equation is the basis for deriving the hydrodynamic tensor. In
1918 1930, Oseen and Burgers gave a simple solution to Equation
1919 \ref{introEquation:tensorExpression}
1920 \begin{equation}
1921 T_{ij}  = \frac{1}{{8\pi \eta r_{ij} }}\left( {I + \frac{{R_{ij}
1922 R_{ij}^T }}{{R_{ij}^2 }}} \right).
1923 \label{introEquation:oseenTensor}
1924 \end{equation}
1925 Here $R_{ij}$ is the distance vector between bead $i$ and bead $j$.
1926 A second order expression for element of different size was
1927 introduced by Rotne and Prager\cite{Rotne1969} and improved by
1928 Garc\'{i}a de la Torre and Bloomfield\cite{Torre1977},
1929 \begin{equation}
1930 T_{ij}  = \frac{1}{{8\pi \eta R_{ij} }}\left[ {\left( {I +
1931 \frac{{R_{ij} R_{ij}^T }}{{R_{ij}^2 }}} \right) + R\frac{{\sigma
1932 _i^2  + \sigma _j^2 }}{{r_{ij}^2 }}\left( {\frac{I}{3} -
1933 \frac{{R_{ij} R_{ij}^T }}{{R_{ij}^2 }}} \right)} \right].
1934 \label{introEquation:RPTensorNonOverlapped}
1935 \end{equation}
1936 Both of the Equation \ref{introEquation:oseenTensor} and Equation
1937 \ref{introEquation:RPTensorNonOverlapped} have an assumption $R_{ij}
1938 \ge \sigma _i  + \sigma _j$. An alternative expression for
1939 overlapping beads with the same radius, $\sigma$, is given by
1940 \begin{equation}
1941 T_{ij}  = \frac{1}{{6\pi \eta R_{ij} }}\left[ {\left( {1 -
1942 \frac{2}{{32}}\frac{{R_{ij} }}{\sigma }} \right)I +
1943 \frac{2}{{32}}\frac{{R_{ij} R_{ij}^T }}{{R_{ij} \sigma }}} \right]
1944 \label{introEquation:RPTensorOverlapped}
1945 \end{equation}
1946
1947 To calculate the resistance tensor at an arbitrary origin $O$, we
1948 construct a $3N \times 3N$ matrix consisting of $N \times N$
1949 $B_{ij}$ blocks
1950 \begin{equation}
1951 B = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1952   {B_{11} } &  \ldots  & {B_{1N} }  \\
1953    \vdots  &  \ddots  &  \vdots   \\
1954   {B_{N1} } &  \cdots  & {B_{NN} }  \\
1955 \end{array}} \right),
1956 \end{equation}
1957 where $B_{ij}$ is given by
1958 \[
1959 B_{ij}  = \delta _{ij} \frac{I}{{6\pi \eta R}} + (1 - \delta _{ij}
1960 )T_{ij}
1961 \]
1962 where $\delta _{ij}$ is Kronecker delta function. Inverting matrix
1963 $B$, we obtain
1964
1965 \[
1966 C = B^{ - 1}  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1967   {C_{11} } &  \ldots  & {C_{1N} }  \\
1968    \vdots  &  \ddots  &  \vdots   \\
1969   {C_{N1} } &  \cdots  & {C_{NN} }  \\
1970 \end{array}} \right)
1971 \]
1972 , which can be partitioned into $N \times N$ $3 \times 3$ block
1973 $C_{ij}$. With the help of $C_{ij}$ and skew matrix $U_i$
1974 \[
1975 U_i  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
1976   0 & { - z_i } & {y_i }  \\
1977   {z_i } & 0 & { - x_i }  \\
1978   { - y_i } & {x_i } & 0  \\
1979 \end{array}} \right)
1980 \]
1981 where $x_i$, $y_i$, $z_i$ are the components of the vector joining
1982 bead $i$ and origin $O$. Hence, the elements of resistance tensor at
1983 arbitrary origin $O$ can be written as
1984 \begin{equation}
1985 \begin{array}{l}
1986 \Xi _{}^{tt}  = \sum\limits_i {\sum\limits_j {C_{ij} } } , \\
1987 \Xi _{}^{tr}  = \Xi _{}^{rt}  = \sum\limits_i {\sum\limits_j {U_i C_{ij} } } , \\
1988 \Xi _{}^{rr}  =  - \sum\limits_i {\sum\limits_j {U_i C_{ij} } } U_j  \\
1989 \end{array}
1990 \label{introEquation:ResistanceTensorArbitraryOrigin}
1991 \end{equation}
1992
1993 The resistance tensor depends on the origin to which they refer. The
1994 proper location for applying friction force is the center of
1995 resistance (reaction), at which the trace of rotational resistance
1996 tensor, $ \Xi ^{rr}$ reaches minimum. Mathematically, the center of
1997 resistance is defined as an unique point of the rigid body at which
1998 the translation-rotation coupling tensor are symmetric,
1999 \begin{equation}
2000 \Xi^{tr}  = \left( {\Xi^{tr} } \right)^T
2001 \label{introEquation:definitionCR}
2002 \end{equation}
2003 Form Equation \ref{introEquation:ResistanceTensorArbitraryOrigin},
2004 we can easily find out that the translational resistance tensor is
2005 origin independent, while the rotational resistance tensor and
2006 translation-rotation coupling resistance tensor depend on the
2007 origin. Given resistance tensor at an arbitrary origin $O$, and a
2008 vector ,$r_{OP}(x_{OP}, y_{OP}, z_{OP})$, from $O$ to $P$, we can
2009 obtain the resistance tensor at $P$ by
2010 \begin{equation}
2011 \begin{array}{l}
2012 \Xi _P^{tt}  = \Xi _O^{tt}  \\
2013 \Xi _P^{tr}  = \Xi _P^{rt}  = \Xi _O^{tr}  - U_{OP} \Xi _O^{tt}  \\
2014 \Xi _P^{rr}  = \Xi _O^{rr}  - U_{OP} \Xi _O^{tt} U_{OP}  + \Xi _O^{tr} U_{OP}  - U_{OP} \Xi _O^{tr} ^{^T }  \\
2015 \end{array}
2016 \label{introEquation:resistanceTensorTransformation}
2017 \end{equation}
2018 where
2019 \[
2020 U_{OP}  = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
2021   0 & { - z_{OP} } & {y_{OP} }  \\
2022   {z_i } & 0 & { - x_{OP} }  \\
2023   { - y_{OP} } & {x_{OP} } & 0  \\
2024 \end{array}} \right)
2025 \]
2026 Using Equations \ref{introEquation:definitionCR} and
2027 \ref{introEquation:resistanceTensorTransformation}, one can locate
2028 the position of center of resistance,
2029 \begin{eqnarray*}
2030 \left( \begin{array}{l}
2031 x_{OR}  \\
2032 y_{OR}  \\
2033 z_{OR}  \\
2034 \end{array} \right) & = &\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c}
2035   {(\Xi _O^{rr} )_{yy}  + (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{zz} } & { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xy} } & { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xz} }  \\
2036   { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xy} } & {(\Xi _O^{rr} )_{zz}  + (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xx} } & { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{yz} }  \\
2037   { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xz} } & { - (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{yz} } & {(\Xi _O^{rr} )_{xx}  + (\Xi _O^{rr} )_{yy} }  \\
2038 \end{array}} \right)^{ - 1}  \\
2039  & & \left( \begin{array}{l}
2040 (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{yz}  - (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{zy}  \\
2041 (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{zx}  - (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{xz}  \\
2042 (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{xy}  - (\Xi _O^{tr} )_{yx}  \\
2043 \end{array} \right) \\
2044 \end{eqnarray*}
2045
2046
2047
2048 where $x_OR$, $y_OR$, $z_OR$ are the components of the vector
2049 joining center of resistance $R$ and origin $O$.
