## Abstract A finite element method approach for solving the three‐dimensional Schrödinger equation expressed in hyperspherical coordinates is applied to the calculation of rovibrational states of H~2~O and D~2~O. Comparisons to experimental values and other theoretical calculations are offered.

✦ Synopsis
A coupled three-dimensional model calculation of the low-frequency large-amplitude intermolecular torsional states in (H20) 3 and (D20) 3 is presented, based on the analytical modEPEN intermolecular potential surface and a three-dimensional discrete variable representation approach. The lowest torsional levels of both (H 20)3 and (D20) 3 lie above the sixfold (upd) torsional barrier. The first eight (eleven) torsions of (H20) 3 ((D20) 3) are pseudorotational states. The 'radial' and 'polar' torsional fundamental frequencies are predicted at 151 and 160 cm -1 for (D20)3, and for (H20) 3 at 185.0 and 185.3 cm-1, respectively. Each of these in turn support a ladder of pseudorotational levels.
