In general, constrained molecular dynamics generates biased statistical averages. It can be shown that the correct average for a quantity Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): a(\xi ) can be obtained using the formula:

It can be shown that the free energy gradient can be computed using the equation:[1][2][3][4]

The free-energy difference between states (1) and (2) can be computed by integrating the free-energy gradients over a connecting path:

Note that as the free-energy is a state quantity, the choice of path connecting (1) with (2) is irrelevant.


Constrained molecular dynamics is performed using the SHAKE algorithm.[5]. In this algorithm, the Lagrangian for the system Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\mathcal {L}} is extended as follows:

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\mathcal {L}}^{*}({\mathbf {q,{\dot {q}}}})={\mathcal {L}}({\mathbf {q,{\dot {q}}}})+\sum _{{i=1}}^{{r}}\lambda _{i}\sigma _{i}(q),

where the summation is over r geometric constraints, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\mathcal {L}}^{*} is the Lagrangian for the extended system, and λi is a Lagrange multiplier associated with a geometric constraint σi:

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): \sigma _{i}(q)=\xi _{i}({q})-\xi _{i}\;

with ξi(q) being a geometric parameter and ξi is the value of ξi(q) fixed during the simulation.

In the SHAKE algorithm, the Lagrange multipliers λi are determined in the iterative procedure:

  1. Perform a standard MD step (leap-frog algorithm):
    Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): v_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t/2}}=v_{i}^{{t-{\Delta }t/2}}+{\frac {a_{i}^{{t}}}{m_{i}}}{\Delta }t
    Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): q_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t}}=q_{i}^{{t}}+v_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t/2}}{\Delta }t
  2. Use the new positions q(t+Δt) to compute Lagrange multipliers for all constraints:
    Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): {\lambda }_{k}={\frac {1}{{\Delta }t^{2}}}{\frac {\sigma _{k}(q^{{t+{\Delta }t}})}{\sum _{{i=1}}^{N}m_{i}^{{-1}}\bigtriangledown _{i}{\sigma }_{k}(q^{{t}})\bigtriangledown _{i}{\sigma }_{k}(q^{{t+{\Delta }t}})}}
  3. Update the velocities and positions by adding a contribution due to restoring forces (proportional to λk):
    Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): v_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t/2}}=v_{i}^{{t-{\Delta }t/2}}+\left(a_{i}^{{t}}-\sum _{k}{\frac {{\lambda }_{k}}{m_{i}}}\bigtriangledown _{i}{\sigma }_{k}(q^{{t}})\right){\Delta }t
    Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://www.vasp.at/wiki/restbase/vasp.at/v1/":): q_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t}}=q_{i}^{{t}}+v_{i}^{{t+{\Delta }t/2}}{\Delta }t
  4. repeat steps 2-4 until either |σi(q)| are smaller than a predefined tolerance (determined by SHAKETOL), or the number of iterations exceeds SHAKEMAXITER.

Anderson thermostat

  • For a constrained molecular dynamics run with Andersen thermostat, one has to:
  1. Set the standard MD-related tags: IBRION=0, TEBEG, POTIM, and NSW
  2. Set MDALGO=1, and choose an appropriate setting for ANDERSEN_PROB
  3. Define geometric constraints in the ICONST-file, and set the STATUS parameter for the constrained coordinates to 0
  4. When the free-energy gradient is to be computed, set LBLUEOUT=.TRUE.
