Theoretically, the friction kernel can be determined using velocity |
360 |
|
where $x_OR$, $y_OR$, $z_OR$ are the components of the vector |
361 |
|
joining center of resistance $R$ and origin $O$. |

Consider a Langevin equation of motions in generalized coordinates |
366 |
|
\begin{equation} |
369 |
|
\end{equation} |
370 |
|
where $M_i$ is a $6\times6$ generalized diagonal mass (include mass |
371 |
|
and moment of inertial) matrix and $V_i$ is a generalized velocity, |
372 |
< |
$V_i = V_i(v_i,\omega _i)$. The right side of Eq. |
372 |

$V_i = V_i(v_i,\omega _i)$. The right side of Eq.~ |
373 |
|
(\ref{LDGeneralizedForm}) consists of three generalized forces in |
374 |
|
lab-fixed frame, systematic force $F_{s,i}$, dissipative force |
375 |
|
$F_{f,i}$ and stochastic force $F_{r,i}$. While the evolution of the |
403 |
|
\begin{equation} |
404 |
|
\left\langle {F_{r,i}^l (t)(F_{r,i}^l (t'))^T } \right\rangle = |
405 |

\left\langle {F_{r,i}^b (t)(F_{r,i}^b (t'))^T } \right\rangle = |

The equation of motion for $v_i$ can be written as |

\subsection{Temperature Control} |
525 |
+ |
|
526 |
+ |
As shown in Eq.~\ref{randomForce}, random collisions associated with |
527 |
+ |
the solvent's thermal motions is controlled by the external |
528 |
+ |
temperature. The capability to maintain the temperature of the whole |
529 |
+ |
system was usually used to measure the stability and efficiency of |
530 |
+ |
the algorithm. In order to verify the stability of this new |
531 |
+ |
algorithm, a series of simulations are performed on system |
532 |
+ |
consisiting of 256 SSD water molecules with different viscosities. |
533 |
+ |
Initial configuration for the simulations is taken from a 1ns NVT |
534 |
+ |
simulation with a cubic box of 19.7166~\AA. All simulation are |
535 |
+ |
carried out with cutoff radius of 9~\AA and 2 fs time step for 1 ns |
536 |
+ |
with reference temperature at 300~K. Average temperature as a |
537 |
+ |
function of $\eta$ is shown in Table \ref{langevin:viscosity} where |
538 |
+ |
the temperatures range from 303.04~K to 300.47~K for $\eta = 0.01 - |
539 |
+ |
1$ poise. The better temperature control at higher viscosity can be |
540 |
+ |
explained by the finite size effect and relative slow relaxation |
541 |
+ |
rate at lower viscosity regime. |
542 |
+ |

557 |
+ |
|
558 |
+ |
Another set of calculation were performed to study the efficiency of |
559 |
+ |
temperature control using different temperature coupling schemes. |
560 |
+ |
The starting configuration is cooled to 173~K and evolved using NVE, |
561 |
+ |
NVT, and Langevin dynamic with time step of 2 fs. |
562 |
+ |
Fig.~\ref{langevin:temperature} shows the heating curve obtained as |
563 |
+ |
the systems reach equilibrium. The orange curve in |
564 |
+ |
Fig.~\ref{langevin:temperature} represents the simulation using |
565 |
+ |
Nos\'e-Hoover temperature scaling scheme with thermostat of 5 ps |
566 |
+ |
which gives reasonable tight coupling, while the blue one from |
567 |
+ |
Langevin dynamics with viscosity of 0.1 poise demonstrates a faster |
568 |
+ |
scaling to the desire temperature. In extremely lower friction |
569 |
+ |
regime (when $ \eta \approx 0$), Langevin dynamics becomes normal |
570 |
+ |
NVE (see green curve in Fig.~\ref{langevin:temperature}) which loses |
571 |
+ |
the temperature control ability. |
