Parameters
A naming scheme is used in this work for each united atom bead. The naming scheme used is:
[element][type][hydrogens]
[element]: the chemical element of the atom
[type]: the chemical environment of the atom,
A = Aromatic, H = Tetrahedral, L = Linear, P = Trigonal
Planar, S = Shared Aromatic, K = Ketone
[hydrogens]: the number of bonded hydrogen atoms in the pseudo atom
For example, CH2 is a tetrahedral carbon unit atom bead with two associated hydrogens. An “L” preceding a
Linking atom type designates an atom being used in a Polymatic bonding step.
LAMMPS Parameters
Detailed information for the format of LAMMPS data files may be found in the
documentation. The specific functional forms used in these data files are the following:
