Hi All,

The Shinoda2007 forcefield for coarse-grained modeling of surfactants has been added into Materials Studio 5.0. We created this forcefield by using a script to read in the values from a study table. This provides an extendable, easy way to generate forcefields from literature.

So I just wanted to post the script and study table so that other people can more easily generate forcefield documents.

To get this into a study table, I transferred from the PDF of the paper into notepad and then imported into Excel. I did a bit of cleaning up in Excel before pasting into the study table.

Modules required: Mesocite, Materials Visualizer
Materials Studio Version: 5.0

Cheers

Stephen
