The double square well model can be seen as a variant (or vice versa) of the square shoulder + square well model. In other words

\[ \Phi_{12}\left( r \right) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ccc} \infty & ; & r < \sigma \\ - \epsilon_1 & ; &\sigma \le r < \lambda_1 \sigma \\ - \epsilon_2 & ; &\lambda_1\sigma \le r < \lambda_2 \sigma \\ 0 & ; & r \ge \lambda_2 \sigma \end{array} \right. \]

where \(\Phi_{12}(r)\) is the intermolecular pair potential, \(\epsilon_1\) and \(\epsilon_2\) are the well depths (\(\epsilon_1,\epsilon_2>0\)), \(r\) is the distance between site 1 and site 2 where \(r := |\mathbf{r}_1 - \mathbf{r}_2|\), σ is the hard core diameter and \(\lambda_1,\lambda_2>1\)
