Combining rules

In computational chemistry and molecular dynamics, the combination rules or combining rules are equations that provide the interaction energy between two dissimilar non-bonded atoms, usually for the part of the potential representing the van der Waals interaction.[1] In the simulation of mixtures, the choice of combining rules can sometimes affect the outcome of the simulation.[2]

Combining rules for the Lennard-Jones potential

The Lennard-Jones Potential is a mathematically simple model for the interaction between a pair of atoms or molecules. One of the most common forms is

where ε is the depth of the potential well, σ is the finite distance at which the inter-particle potential is zero, r is the distance between the particles. The potential reaches a minimum, of depth ε, when r = 21/6σ ≈ 1.122σ.

Lorentz-Berthelot rules

The Lorentz rule was proposed by H. A. Lorentz in 1881:[3]

The Lorentz rule is only analytically correct for hard sphere systems.

The Berthelot rule (Daniel Berthelot, 1898) is given by:[4]

These rules are the most widely used and are the default in many molecular simulation packages, but are not without failings.[5][6][7]

Waldman-Hagler rules

The Waldman-Hagler rules are given by:[8]

and

Fender-Halsey

The Fender-Halsey combining rule is given by [9]

Kong rules

The Kong rules for the Lennard-Jones potential are given by:[10]

Others

Many others have been proposed, including those of Tang and Toennies[11] Pena,[12][13] Hudson and McCoubrey[14] and Sikora(1970).[15]

Combining rules for other potentials

Good-Hope rule

The Good-Hope rule for Mie–Lennard‐Jones or Buckingham potentials is given by:[16]

Hogervorst rules

The Hogervorst rules for the Exp-6 potential are:[17]

and

Kong-Chakrabarty rules

The Kong-Chakrabarty rules for the Exp-6 potential are:[18]

and

Other rules for that have been proposed for the Exp-6 potential are the Mason-Rice rules[19] and the Srivastava and Srivastava rules (1956).[20]
