A computational model based on energy minimization has been developed for/3-MgESiO4. The potential energy of the model includes Coulomb and repulsive interactions between non-bonded atoms as well as bond-distance-stretching energy terms for Si-O distances and bond-angle-bending energy terms for O-Si-O angles. Some of the energy parameters are treated as common to a- and /3-Mg2SiO4, and are obtained by varying these parameters until both the calculated atmospheric-pressure structure and the elastic constants of a-Mg2SiO4 agree as closely as possible with the experimental ones. Other necessary energy parameters for the modeling of fl-Mg2SiO4 are derived to reproduce the observed atmosphericpressure structure of fl-Mg2SiO4. The potential model obtained is successfully used for the calculation of the elastic constants of fl- Mg2SiO4. Subsequently, the model is applied to the simulation of crystal structures of fl-MgESiO4 under high pressure. The pressure derivatives of the elastic constants of fl-MgESiO4 are also evaluated using the model. The present model is compared with a recently proposed one for /3Mg2SiO4.
