The Generalized Continuous Multiple Step (GCMS) potential is presented in this work. Due to its flexibility, repulsive and/or attractive contributions are encodable through adjustable energy and length scales. The GCMS interaction provides a continuous representation of square-well, square-shoulder potentials and their variants for implementation in computer simulations. A continuous and differentiable energy representation is required to derive forces in conventional simulation algorithms. Molecular Dynamics simulations are of particular interest when considering the dynamic properties of a system. The GCMS potential can mimic other interactions with a judicious choice of parameters due to the versatile sigmoid form. In this study, our benchmarks for the GCMS representation include triangular, Yukawa, Franzese, and Lennard-Jones potentials. Comparisons made with published data on volumetric phase diagrams, liquid structure, and diffusivity from model systems are in excellent agreement.
