<h2>Description</h2>
<p>This fix allows you to compute the free energy temperature dependence
by performing a thermodynamic integration procedure known as
Reversible Scaling <a class="reference internal" href="#dekoning99"><span class="std std-ref">(de Koning99,</span></a> <a class="reference internal" href="#dekoning00a"><span class="std std-ref">de Koning00a)</span></a>. The thermodynamic integration is performed
using the nonequilibrium method of Adiabatic Switching
<a class="reference internal" href="fix_ti_spring.html#watanabe"><span class="std std-ref">(Watanabe,</span></a> <a class="reference internal" href="fix_ti_spring.html#dekoning96"><span class="std std-ref">de Koning96)</span></a>.</p>
<p>The forces on the atoms are dynamically scaled during the simulation,
the rescaling is done in the following manner:</p>
<img alt="_images/fix_ti_rs_force.jpg" class="align-center" src="_images/fix_ti_rs_force.jpg" />
<p>where F_int is the total force on the atoms due to the interatomic
potential and lambda is the coupling parameter of the thermodynamic
integration.</p>
<p>The fix acts as follows: during the first <em>t_equil</em> steps after the
fix is defined the value of lambda is <em>lambda_initial</em> , this is the
period to equilibrate the system in the lambda = <em>lambda_initial</em>
state. After this the value of lambda changes continuously from
<em>lambda_initial</em> to <em>lambda_final</em> according to the function defined
using the keyword <em>function</em> (described below), this is done in
<em>t_switch</em> steps. Then comes the second equilibration period of
<em>t_equil</em> to equilibrate the system in the lambda = <em>lambda_final</em>
state. After that the switching back to the lambda = <em>lambda_initial</em>
state is done using <em>t_switch</em> timesteps and following the same
switching function. After this period the value of lambda is kept
equal to <em>lambda_initial</em> indefinitely or until a <a class="reference internal" href="unfix.html"><span class="doc">unfix</span></a>
erase the fix.</p>
<p>The description of thermodynamic integration in both directions is
done in <a class="reference internal" href="#dekoning00b"><span class="std std-ref">de Koning00b</span></a>, the main reason is to try to
eliminate the dissipated heat due to the nonequilibrium process.</p>
<p>The <em>function</em> keyword allows the use of three different switching
rates. The option <em>1</em> results in a constant rescaling where the lambda
parameter changes at a constant rate during the switching time
according to the switching function</p>
<img alt="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_1.jpg" class="align-center" src="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_1.jpg" />
<p>where tau is the scaled time variable t/t_switch. This switching
function has the characteristic that the temperature scaling is faster
at temperatures closer to the final temperature of the procedure. The
option number <em>2</em> performs the switching at a rate defined by the
following switching function</p>
<img alt="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_2.jpg" class="align-center" src="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_2.jpg" />
<p>This switching function has the characteristic that the temperature
scaling occurs at a constant rate during all the procedure. The option
number <em>3</em> performs the switching at a rate defined by the following
switching function</p>
<img alt="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_3.jpg" class="align-center" src="_images/fix_ti_rs_function_3.jpg" />
<p>This switching function has the characteristic that the temperature
scaling is faster at temperatures closer to the initial temperature of
the procedure.</p>
<p>An example script using this command is provided in the
examples/USER/misc/ti directory.</p>

<p>No information about this fix is written to <a class="reference internal" href="restart.html"><span class="doc">binary restart files</span></a>.</p>
<p>This fix computes a global vector quantitie which can be accessed by
various <a class="reference internal" href="Section_howto.html#howto-15"><span class="std std-ref">output commands</span></a>. The vector has
2 positions, the first one is the coupling parameter lambda and the
second one is the time derivative of lambda. The scalar and vector
values calculated by this fix are &#8220;extensive&#8221;.</p>
<p>No parameter of this fix can be used with the <em>start/stop</em> keywords of
the <a class="reference internal" href="run.html"><span class="doc">run</span></a> command.</p>
<p>The forces due to this fix are imposed during an energy minimization,
invoked by the <a class="reference internal" href="minimize.html"><span class="doc">minimize</span></a> command.</p>
