分子动力学模拟实例
聚合物中分子扩散系数的计算模拟
分子动力学做扩散系数有两种方法： 1. 计算体系的均方位移（Mean square displacement ＭＳＤ），然后根据Einstein关系 求得扩散系数；
2. 计算体系的速度自关联函数（Velocity autocorrelation function VACF)然后再通过Greenkubo关系计算体系的扩散系数

• There are different types of molecular dynamics simulations and these are classified by the ensemble names, NVE, NVT, NPT, and NPH. The letters refer to: • N = constant number of moles V = constant volume E = constant energy T = constant temperature P = constant pressure H = constant enthalpy
• At this point in a real calculation, you would check to see if your calculation has produced reliable results. You can do this by plotting log(MSD) against log(time) and, if your calculation has converged, you should obtain a straight line. If you do not have a straight line, you should run the production stage of the calculation again.
• Plot MSD vs. time. Calculate the line of best fit of the graph using linear regression, y = ax + b. Note down the slope, a.

• The final part of this tutorial involves the use of an external spreadsheet or charting package. You will use it to check whether the calculation of the mean square displacement has been successful and then to calculate the diffusivity coefficient from the mean square displacement. • You should copy and paste the chart document into your chosen spreadsheet package.
mean square displacement (MSD) of the oxygen atoms with time
• The Discover Analysis tool uses the client-server architecture to calculate the mean square displacement. A new folder, cell Disco Mean squared displacement, is created and the cell.xcd document within this folder contains a plot of the mean square displacement (MSD) of the oxygen atoms with time. The value of the MSD for a given time reported in the chart is the average over all time intervals of that length and over all atoms in the set.

Expand the Dynamic node and select Mean squared displacement
• You must specify which document you want to perform the analysis on. A logical trajectory document consists of one or more trajectories so you will use this to specify your trajectory document
• Right-click in the plot, and select Copy from the shortcut menu. Open a new spreadsheet, right-click in the spreadsheet and select Paste from the shortcut menu.
On the Discover Analysis dialog, select oxygen from the Choose sets dropdown list. Click the Analyze button and close the dialog.
6. To export data and calculate the diffusivity
1、Getting started
• Begin by starting Materials Studio and creating a new project. • Open the New Project dialog and enter polymer_gas as the project name, click the OK button. • The new project is created with polymer_gas listed in the Project Explorer.
