mW model of water

The mW model of water is an atom with tetrahedrality intermediate between carbon and silicon. mW mimics the hydrogen-bonded structure of water through the introduction of a nonbond angular dependent term that encourages tetrahedral configurations. The model is given by:

$E=\sum _{i}\sum _{j>i}\Phi _{ij}(r_{ij})+\sum _{i}\sum _{j\neq i}\sum _{k>j}\Phi _{ijk}(r_{ij},r_{ik},\theta _{ijk})$
