CV, Padma Kumar Page 5 Research Experience: 1. At University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Projects: (a) Aqueous - mineral interfaces: the hydration of layered double hydrox- ides (LDHs) containing functional organic species. (b) Hydration structure, proton transfer, and reactivity of carbonates: H2CO3, 2− − CO3 , HCO3 and CO2 in aqueous solution. Techniques: Classical and ab initio (Car-Parrinello) molecular dynamics, metadynamics. Accomplishments: • Enhanced swelling of layered double hydroxides bearing organic anions in contrast to those intercalated with inorganic species was demonstrated in molecular dynamics simulations, consistent with recent experiments. • Systematic changes in the orientation and the H-bonding patterns of the interlayer- organic-species were found associated with progressive hydration of the LDHs. • The enhanced swelling behaviour of organo-LDHs was attributed to the preference of the carboxylate species to accept hydrogen bonds from water than from the hydroxyl groups on the surface of LDH. • Our metadynamics studies provide fresh insights on the mechanism and energetics of the dissociation and conformational changes of carbonic acid in gas-phase. • A molecular level understanding of the mechanism and energetics of the inter- conversions of carbonates in aqueous environment is emerging from our ongoing ab initio molecular dynamics and metadynamics studies. 2. At Ruhr-Universit¨atBochum Project: Large amplitude motions in small molecules: impact of pseudo rotations + on the IR spectra of protonated methane, CH5 Techniques: Ab initio (Car-Parrinello and Born-Oppenheimer) molecular dynamics. Accomplishments: • An appropriate theoretical basis for the computation of ‘classical’ infrared(IR) spec- trum was formulated through performance-evaluation of various quantum correction factors (QCFs) to the classical dipole auto correlation functions in model systems. • The existing CPMD code was adapted to remove physically uninteresting over-all rotation-translations conforming to angular- and linear- momentum conservation, as a second phase of the project. The technique is most general and is highly desired in gas-phase simulations. CV, Padma Kumar Page 6 • Excellent agreement was found between the computed IR spectrum to that measured by the novel Laser Induced Reaction (LIR) technique, confirming the satisfactory level of the theoretical treatment. • Strategies for spectral assignment of such floppy molecules beyond the traditional harmonic analysis were developed. + • Spectroscopic evidence for three center two electron bonding operative in CH5 was presented. 3. At Indian Institute of Science Project: Ion transport in framework solids: Development of interatomic potentials and Insights from computer simulation studies of NASICON-type superi- onic conductors. Techniques: Classical Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics. Accomplishments: • Developed interionic potentials to describe mobile ions in an approximated rigid framework of NASICON-type solids, by fitting to X-ray structure and DC conduc-

  • The Alexandria Library, a Quantum-Chemical Database of Molecular Properties for Force field Development 9 2017 Received: October 1 1 1 Mohammad M
    www.nature.com/scientificdata OPEN Data Descriptor: The Alexandria library, a quantum-chemical database of molecular properties for force field development 9 2017 Received: October 1 1 1 Mohammad M. Ghahremanpour , Paul J. van Maaren & David van der Spoel Accepted: 19 February 2018 Published: 10 April 2018 Data quality as well as library size are crucial issues for force field development. In order to predict molecular properties in a large chemical space, the foundation to build force fields on needs to encompass a large variety of chemical compounds. The tabulated molecular physicochemical properties also need to be accurate. Due to the limited transparency in data used for development of existing force fields it is hard to establish data quality and reusability is low. This paper presents the Alexandria library as an open and freely accessible database of optimized molecular geometries, frequencies, electrostatic moments up to the hexadecupole, electrostatic potential, polarizabilities, and thermochemistry, obtained from quantum chemistry calculations for 2704 compounds. Values are tabulated and where available compared to experimental data. This library can assist systematic development and training of empirical force fields for a broad range of molecules.

Giuria 7, Torino 10125, Italy. Correspondence e-mail: [email protected] The growth in complexity of quantum mechanical software packages for modelling the physicochemical properties of crystalline materials may hinder their usability by the vast majority of non-specialized users. Consequently, a free operating-system-independent graphical user interface (GUI) has been devel- oped to drive the most common simulation packages for treating both molecules and solids. In order to maintain maximum portability and graphical efficiency, the popular molecular graphics engine Jmol, written in the portable Java language, has been combined with a specialized GUI encoded in HTML and JavaScript. This framework, called J-ICE, allows users to visualize, build and manipulate complex input or output results (derived from modelling) entirely via a web server, i.e. without the burden of installing complex packages. This solution also dramatically speeds up both the development procedure and bug # 2011 International Union of Crystallography fixing. Among the range of software appropriate for modelling condensed Printed in Singapore – all rights reserved matter, the focus of J-ICE is currently only on CRYSTAL09 and VASP.

  • 1 Introduction – the Basic Computational Environment This Chapter Provides You with Some Basic Introduction to Your 'Computational Work Desk'
    The Basic Computational Environment 1 1 Introduction – The Basic Computational Environment This chapter provides you with some basic introduction to your 'Computational Work desk'. It is structured into three parts. The first one consists of some quick tutorial how to login into your machine. The second part deals with basic steps in a UNIX-like environment and introduces the 'SHELL', the UNIX command line. In the third part two of the most used editors are presented in order to enable the user to manipulate text files at will. 1.1 Login Into Your Computer Before you can login it is essential that you haven been provided with a username and a password. Usually these are provided by your chemistry department or your system administrator. The first thing you will see is the 'login-screen', asking you to type in your username. Figure 1: a typical login screen The screen might look somewhat different, but it should be similar to the one shown above. Once you typed in your username and pressed the <RETURN> key, the system will ask you for your password, which you are expected to type, again followed by <RETURN>. (The pressing of the <RETURN> key after typing in some commands or other things is assumed from now on.) Having succeeded in providing the correct password you are provided with your graphical desktop. All your actions will take place in this environment. The next thing to do is to open a window containing a command- line, which is usally called a 'shell'. This is nothing else than a window where you can type in your commands.

    Molden 1 MOLDEN FUNCTION Molden - is a package for displaying Molecular Density DESCRIPTION MOLDEN is a package for displaying molecular density. It is tuned to the Ab Initio packages GAMESS* and GAUSSIAN. It can read all the information it needs from a GAMESS or GAUSSIAN outputfile. In this form it has been running on a Convex C-120, an Apollo DN10000, an IRIS 4d/70gt, a DECstation 5000 and a SUN, and in slightly adapted versions on a VAX and a Cray-YMP. It should run smoothly on most Unix machines. See section INSTALLATION GUIDE on how to install MOLDEN.(* The GAMESS version referred to here is the european version maintaned by M.F. Guest et al not to be confused with the american version maintained by M.W. Schmidt et al) MOLDEN was written by: G. Schaftenaar CAOS/CAMM Center Nijmegen Toernooiveld, Nijmegen The Netherlands (1991) e-mail adress : [email protected] FILES MOLDEN reads two files, these are: Inputfile File holding the title and keyword lines ( FORTRAN unit 5 ) GAMESS/GAUSSIAN Outputfile A file produced by running GAMESS/GAUSSIAN. The name of this file must be defined with the keyword file . This must be the output of a single GAMESS/GAUSSIAN run. Care must be taken not to turn off printing of vectors and/or basis set in the case of GAMESS. In the case of GAUSSIAN printing of basis set information has to be turned on by the use of the keyword GFINPUT. Printing of MO coefficients has to be turned on by use of the keyword IOP(6/7=1).( FORTRAN unit 30 ) MOLDEN writes two files, these are: Outputfile Results file.
