各位老师好,我研究的体系是25℃下锌盐在不同溶剂中的溶剂化情况。
在查阅文献的时候,我发现他们的系综选择和模拟时长都有较大差别,主要分为这两类:
1. The system was annealed from 0 to 298 K over a period of 0.5 ns, following by running for another 2.0 ns to reach equilibrium. The temperature and pressure coupling were performed in V-rescale and Berendsen method, respectively. Finally, a 100-ns production simulation was run for post-processing analysis. The pressure coupling method in production simulation period was changed to Parrinello-Rahman. (连续的NPT,最后的prod用了100ns)
2. All initial configurations were subjected to two steps of energy minimization,first using steepest descent with the convergence criteria of 1000 kcal mol−1 Å−1 followed by conjugated-gradient energy minimization with convergence criteria of 10 kcal mol−1 Å−1. After minimization isothermal−isobaric (NPT) simulations were performed at 25 °C and 1 bar using the Berendsen barostat with a time constant of 0.1 ps to get the correct density. All systems were then heated to a temperature of 127 °C for 1 ns followed by a 3 ns annealing to 25 °C in a canonical ensemble (NVT) using an improved velocity rescaling algorithm with a coupling constant of 0.1 ps to ensure that the molecules were not trapped in a metastable state. Afterward, NVT simulations were performed for 10 ns to equilibrate the systems at 25 °C. The simulations are long enough to capture the structural and dynamical properties of equilibrated systems. (em先steep后cg,用0.1ps的NPT得到correct density?然后是高温的NVT,最后的prod用的是10ns的NVT)
我想请教各位老师的问题是:
1. 模拟这种常温下金属盐溶液的溶剂化情况,用上述的哪一种方法更好,也就是每一步的系综应该如何选择呢?
2. 这个0.1ps的NPT得到correct density是什么道理呢?
3. 高温NVT有必要做吗?
4. 在算力充足的情况下,跑的越长会结果会越准确吗?如果算力不够,10ns是不是一个可以接受的下限呢?
