Data scheme and data format for transferable force fields for molecular simulation.

ABSTRACT: A generalized data scheme for transferable classical force fields used in molecular simulations, i.e. molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation, is presented. The data scheme is implemented in an SQL-based data format. The data scheme and data format is machine readable, re-usable, and interoperable. A transferable force field is a chemical construction plan specifying intermolecular and intramolecular interactions between different types of atoms or different chemical groups and can be used for building a model for a given component. The data scheme proposed in this work (named TUK-FFDat) formalizes digitally these chemical construction plans, i.e. transferable force fields. It can be applied to all-atom as well as united-atom transferable force fields. The general applicability of th
