We carried out NPT ensemble classical molecular dynamics simulation of water in solid, liquid and gaseous state. The simulations were performed for two density cases-normal (r ΒΌ 1 g/cm 3 ) and lowered density (r ΒΌ 0:25 g/cm 3 ), for several values of temperature. The calculated structural and dynami

β¦ Synopsis
Molecular dynamics calculations of hydrated zinc ion show the formation of a stable octahedral hydration shell around the Zn 2ΓΎ ion. The OH bond lengths in the octahedral molecules are longer than outside the shell by 0.02 A A and correspondingly the OH stretching modes are shifted downwards by about 270 cm Γ1 . The density of vibrational states is analysed in terms of motions of the building entities and a description of the dynamics of Zn(H 2 O) 2ΓΎ 6 octahedron is proposed. The modelling results compare very satisfactory with available experimental data.

## Abstract An __ab initio__ quantum mechanical charge field molecular dynamics simulation was carried out for one methanol molecule in water to analyze the structure and dynamics of hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. It is found that water molecules around the methyl group form a cageβlike struct
A molecular dynamics simulation has been performed for a two-dimensional LennardJones (12-6) fluid. A saturated liquid at low temperature, compressed liquid, and fluid at supercritical temperatures with various densities were analyzed. Number of bonds per molecule, lifetime of bonds, connectivity of
The structural and dynamical properties of water next to the Pt( 111) and Pt( 100) surfaces were investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. At 300 K, the water layer adjacent to the surface displays solid-like properties. The adsorption sites for the water molecules are determined by the loc
