|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>Specify the angle force field coefficients for one or more angle types.
|
|
|
|
The number and meaning of the coefficients depends on the angle style.
|
|
|
|
Angle coefficients can also be set in the data file read by the
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> command or in a restart file.
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>N can be specified in one of two ways. An explicit numeric value can
|
2008-03-19 04:18:54 +08:00
|
|
|
be used, as in the 1st example above. Or a wild-card asterisk can be
|
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
|
|
|
used to set the coefficients for multiple angle types. This takes the
|
|
|
|
form "*" or "*n" or "n*" or "m*n". If N = the number of angle types,
|
2008-03-01 09:13:20 +08:00
|
|
|
then an asterisk with no numeric values means all types from 1 to N. A
|
|
|
|
leading asterisk means all types from 1 to n (inclusive). A trailing
|
|
|
|
asterisk means all types from n to N (inclusive). A middle asterisk
|
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
|
|
|
means all types from m to n (inclusive).
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
2006-09-29 03:22:09 +08:00
|
|
|
<P>Note that using an angle_coeff command can override a previous setting
|
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
|
|
|
for the same angle type. For example, these commands set the coeffs
|
|
|
|
for all angle types, then overwrite the coeffs for just angle type 2:

</PRE>
|
|
|
|
<P>A line in a data file that specifies angle coefficients uses the exact
|
|
|
|
same format as the arguments of the angle_coeff command in an input
|
2006-09-29 03:22:09 +08:00
|
|
|
script, except that wild-card asterisks should not be used since
|
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
|
|
|
coefficients for all N types must be listed in the file. For example,
|
|
|
|
under the "Angle Coeffs" section of a data file, the line that
|
|
|
|
corresponds to the 1st example above would be listed as

<P>The <A HREF = "angle_class2.html">angle_style class2</A> is an exception to this

rule, in that an additional argument is used in the input script to

allow specification of the cross-term coefficients. See its

doc page for details.
