We have executed the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation in SrTiO3 usin
g the partially ionic model (PIM), and optimized the relevant potentia
l parameters except for the effective charge of each ion. The room tem
perature crystal structure, the thermal expansion and the compressibil
ity of SrTiO3 were found to be reproducible by MD simulation using PIM
