Abstract: Phase diagrams for the deformed and extended kagome lattices are obtained using a computer model consisting of hard spheres decorated with attractive vibrating patches simulated using a molecular dynamics program designed for discontinuous potentials. The vibrating molecules gave the phase diagram of the deformed structure. In order to obtain the phase diagram of the extended kagome lattice, an “I” shaped model consisting of six hard spheres was used. The phase diagram of a new, extended open network formed with an “I” shaped molecule of five hard spheres, is also reported. These simple models serve as inspiration to study more complex self assembling systems like virus capsid formation.
