Theoretical

Computer simulation techniques have now reached the stage where it is possible to calculate the entire phase diagram for a particular model of water. For example, see Ref

TIP4P/2005 model

The phase diagram of the TIP4P/2005 model is given in a publication by Abascal, Sanz and Vega.

Plastic crystal phases

Recent simulations have suggested the possibility of a plastic crystal phase or phases for water.
