摘要 :

The history of modeling water is reviewed. My starting point is the pioneering paper of JD Bernal and RH Fowler, from 1933, which employed an intermolecular potential, fitted to electronic structure, to help rationalize the properties of water and ionic solutions. I will then discuss a paper by John Pople from the early 1950’s, which used electrostatics and bending of hydrogen bonds to explain the structure of water. Next, I will transition to the era of intermolecular potentials derived by systematic fitting to experimental data. This successful multi-property parameter-fitting approach was championed by Bill Jorgensen in the 1980’s. Then, came the important development exemplified by the works of Michele Parrinello, with co-workers and disciples, which explored the phase space of water via ab initio molecular dynamics (MD), notably with nuclei moving under the influence of forces derived from Density Functional Theory (DFT). I will then briefly discuss the critical advances in DFT, emanating from John Perdew and collaborators, which are relevant to the modeling of water. Finally, I will explore the modern era, which harnesses the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to quantitatively model the properties of water and ionic solutions. As a result of AI/ML atom-based neural network interatomic potentials, the properties of water are now accessible to quantitative modeling over the whole range of interesting temperatures and pressures. Recent results on using AI/ML approaches to modeling polymeric materials will also be discussed.
