Force fields in molecular modelling
##Force fields in molecular modelling
- Interatomic force fields
- nice examples of importance
### Introduction
- Outline to simulations and why we need them
- Different methods and timescale
- Pointing out DFT and Classical/Coarse Grain
- Bridging the gap using Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials (MLIPs)
- Examples of these in the past
-mace notebook
- intro mace
Extra MP faster than NN.
### Introduction to MACE
- What is MACE?
- MACE = Message-passing Atomic Cluster Expansion
- The code that takes in information such as atomic position, energies, forces, stress, etc. and genereates a potential based on that
- To understand what MACE actually does, we must first visit ACE.
- A condensed theoretical explanation of ACE then how MACE builds on it via NN
- Importance of hyperparameters
### Trying out MACE
- Introduce MACE Jupyter notebook
- Going through training parameters and dataset
- Running it once with the default settings and compare with a GAP (Gaussian Approximation Potential ) that was trained on the same data
- Change some hyper parameters and training again
- Importance of hyperparameters
- Why changing some won't make a big differences
- Channels: Does more always more more
- To validate:
- Plot against reference parameters (xTB = Semiempirical Tight Binding)
- Training
- Plot against reference parameters
- Change hyperparameters
- understand differences
-Turn into a MD model
- Intro into MD
Run ase MD engine
### Using the MACE Model
- Small introduction into MD (Molecular Dynamics)
- Basic theory, ie Newtons 2nd Law
- Most importanly: Time dependancy and linking back to timescale from introduction
- Mention we turn it into a LAMMPS potential file to use normall but we can use ASE engine
- CAn calculate properties such as RDF
- Can compare energies with xTB calculations
