    Notes: Despite the sizable literature on computer simulations of water and aqueous solutions, very little is known about one of the most interesting properties of water, namely its dielectric constant. In this paper it is demonstrated that the methodological as well as technological problems that have hitherto impeded the calculation of dielectric properties of realistic model systems have now been overcome. Using a small dedicated array processor, a series of extensive simulations with the MCY (Matsuoka–Clementi–Yoshimine) potential for water have been performed in reaction field geometry, and it is shown that consistent (i.e., free from boundary effects) and accurate results may be obtained for the full frequency-dependent dielectric constant, from the static up to the submillimeter range. At the same time it is found that the rather popular MCY model is not able to satisfactorily reproduce the dielectric properties of real water: Both the static dielectric constant and the principal dielectric relaxation time are much lower than the experimental values, and the temperature dependence of the Kirkwood g factor has the wrong sign. It is concluded that in the future the calculation of the dielectric constant, being a measure of orientational correlations between molecules, will play an important part in assessing the reliability of model potentials for water.

    Notes: In this second paper in a series of systematic investigations seeking to relate the dielectric properties of water to the features of the intermolecular potential, extensive molecular dynamics simulations with the empirical TIP4P effective pair potential are compared with the experimental data for water as well as with the results reported previously for the MCY ab initio model. The frequency dependence of the dielectric constant obtained for the two models is contrasted with the predictions of a Mori three-variable theory and analyzed in detail using a phenomenological description of dielectric relaxation. It is shown that both models are capable of reproducing all reorientational processes observed in the experimental spectrum. However, qualitative agreement with the experimental results for the Debye relaxation time and the static Kirkwood g-factor gK is only obtained with the TIP4P model, although the values are still too low and ∂gK/∂T has the wrong sign. The differences between the models are interpreted as being due to the different position chosen for the center of negative charge, and it is argued that moving the latter further towards the oxygen would, for simple rigid point charge models, yield considerably improved agreement with experiment.

    Notes: Abstract There is a marked difference in the structure of the arterial tree between epi- and endocardial layers of the human heart. To model these structural variations, we developed an extension to the computational method of constrained constructive optimization (CCO). Within the framework of CCO, a model tree is represented as a dichotomously branching network of straight cylindrical tubes, with flow conditions governed by Poiseuille's law. The tree is grown by successively adding new terminal segments from randomly selected points within the perfusion volume while optimizing the geometric location and topological site of each new connection with respect to minimum intravascular volume. The proposed method of “staged growth” guides the generation of new terminal sites by means of an additional time-dependent boundary condition, thereby inducing a sequence of domains of vascular growth within the given perfusion volume. Model trees generated in this way are very similar to reality in their visual appearance and predict diameter ratios of parent and daughter segments, the distribution of symmetry, the transmural distribution of flow, the volume of large arteries, as well as the ratio of small arterial volume in subendocardial and subepicardial layers in good agreement with experimental data. From this study we conclude that the method of CCO combined with staged growth reproduces many characteristics of the different arterial branching patterns in the subendocardium and the subepicardium, which could not be obtained by applying the principle of minimum volume alone. © 2000 Biomedical Engineering Society.

    Notes: Radical-Stabilization-Energy - the MMEVBH Force FieldMaking use of the VB method of Malrieu et al.[6-10] a force field has been developped, which allows to calculate heats of formation of hydrocarbons (conjugated and non-conjugated olefins, radicals, and diradicals) with high accuracy. With this method radical stabilization energies (RSE) for a great number of delocalized radicals are calculated and compared with experimental values, derived from shock-tube measurements of dissociation energies or from rotational barriers of substituted olefins. A detailed analysis of the RSE with respect to structure, substituents, strain, and aromaticity is presented.

    Notes: Radical Recombination Enthalpy.  -  Thermochemistry of the Ringopening of CyclophanesBy thermolysis of the cyclophanes 1, 5, 8, 11, 14, 18, and 21 in the presence of NO or O2 the enthalpy profiles for the ring opening were determined from the temperature, NO, or O2 dependance of the trapping rates of the intermediate diradicals. The experimental enthalpy wells, which varied between 3 and 12 kcal · mol-1, can be simulated well with a reaction forcefield making use of the EVBH method of Malrieu et al. This result gives confidence that also meaningful recombination barriers of radicals can be obtained by this method.

    Notes: Oxygen Trapping of Radicals in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide; Heat of Formation and Recombination Barrier of the Cycloheptatrienyl RadicalThe homolytic thermal cleavage of bitropenyl (1) in supercritical carbon dioxide has been measured in the presence of 1 to 180 bar oxygen between 120 and 170°C. From these data the activation parameters of the dissociation and recombination reaction are derived, which lead to a heat of formation for the tropenyl radical (2) of ΔHfo = 64.7 kcal · mol-1. By using this value a radical stabilization energy (RSE) or 31.5 kcal · mol-1 is obtained, which differs by 1.7 kcal · mol-1 from the planar, acyclic isomer (trans,trans-1,3,6-trien-5-yl: RSE = 29.8 kcal · mol-1), which is practically equivalent to the relief of ring strain due to the formation of the radical. In agreement with the observed stability of 2 the equilibrium constant for its reaction with oxygen at 143°C is Keq = 727.7 mol-1, which corresponds to a bond strengths of 31.5 kcal · mol-1 for R-O2·. The equipment and the method used for these experiments are described in detail.
