Water is a notoriously difficult substance to model both accurately and efficiently. Here, we focus on descriptions with a single coarse-grained particle per molecule using the so-called Approximate Non-Conformal (ANC) and generalized…
The so-called thermodynamic anomalies of water form an integral part of the peculiar behaviour of this both important and ubiquitous molecule. In this paper our aim is to establish whether the recently proposed TIP4P/2005 model is capable…
Modelling micro- and meso-scopic scale thermodynamic and transport properties of soft condensed matter hinges upon its representation. This is especially relevant for polar solvents such as water, since these require effective…
A large number of water models exists for molecular simulations. They differ in the ability to reproduce specific features of real water instead of others, like the correct temperature for the density maximum or the diffusion coefficient.…
We use molecular simulation to compute the thermodynamic properties of 7 rigid models for water (SPC/E, TIP3P, TIP4P, TIP4P/2005, TIP4P/Ew, TIP5P, OPC) over a wide range of temperature and pressure. Carrying out Expanded Wang-Landau…
Density (or state) dependent pair potentials arise naturally from coarse-graining procedures in many areas of condensed matter science. However, correctly using them to calculate physical properties of interest is subtle and cannot be…

Simulating water from first principles remains a significant computational challenge due to the slow dynamics of the underlying system. Although machine-learned interatomic potentials (MLPs) can accelerate these simulations, they often fail…

We perform molecular dynamics simulations of a well-known water model (the TIP5P pair potential) and a simple liquid model (a two-scale repulsive ramp potential) to compare the regions of anomalous behavior in their phase diagrams. We…
Given that the physical properties of polymeric liquids extend on a wide range of lengthscales, it is computationally convenient to represent them by coarse-grained (CG) descriptions at various granularities to investigate local and global…
Coarse-grained models are a core computational tool in theoretical chemistry and biophysics. A judicious choice of a coarse-grained model can yield physical insight by isolating the essential degrees of freedom that dictate the…
The striking behavior of water has deserved it to be referred to as an "anomalous" liquid. The water anomalies are greatly amplified in metastable (supercooled/stretched) regions. This makes difficult a complete experimental description…
