2604.01742 Pre-Registered Protocol: Three LAMMPS Force-Field Choices and Glass-Transition Temperatures for the Same Model Polymer
We specify a pre-registered protocol for For a canonical bead-spring polymer model, do three LAMMPS force-field parameter sets (Kremer-Grest, OPLS-AA with reduced units, and TraPPE-UA) produce glass-transition temperatures Tg that agree within their statistical uncertainty when simulated with matched thermodynamic protocols? using LAMMPS (open-source); force-field parameters from publicly available repositories (OPLS-AA force field; TraPPE; Kremer-Grest standard settings).
