Mapping Atomistic to Coarse-Grained Polymer Models Using Automatic Simplex Optimization To Fit Structural Properties
Open accessAbstract
We develop coarse-grained force fields for poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(acrylic acid) oligomers. In both cases, one monomer is mapped onto a coarse-grained bead. The new force fields are designed to match structural properties such as radial distribution functions of various kinds derived by atomistic simulations of these polymers. The mapping is therefore constructed in a way to take into account as much atomistic information as possible. On the technical side, our approach consists of a simplex algorithm which is used to optimize automatically nonbonded parameters as well as bonded parameters. Besides their similar conformation (only the functional side group differs), poly(acrylic acid) was chosen to be in aqueous solution in contrast to a poly(vinyl alcohol) melt. For poly(vinyl alcohol), a nonoptimized bond angle potential turns out to be sufficient in connection with a special, optimized nonbonded potential. No torsional potential has to be applied here. For poly(acrylic acid), we show that each peak of the radial distribution function is usually dominated by some specific model parameter(s). Optimization of the bond angle parameters is essential. The coarse-grained forcefield reproduces the radius of gyration ( R G ) of the atomistic model. As a first application, we use the force field to simulate longer chains and compare the hydrodynamic radius ( R H ) with experimental data.

“In most studies, the super atom is defined to be a spherical particle [37,177,184,189–191], but there are also some studies attempting to do generalizations for anisotropic potentials [192,193].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
