A soft ellipsoid contact potential model for a pair of biaxial ellipsoidal molecules is proposed which considers the configuration dependent energy anisotropy explicitly along with their geometrical aspects. We performed Molecular Dynamics simulation study to generate both biaxial smectic and nematic phases using this new potential.
