<P><B>Description:</B>
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>Apply an additional external force to a group of atoms in such a way
|
||
|
that every atom experiences the same force. This is useful for
|
||
|
pushing on wall or boundary atoms so that the structure of the wall
|
||
|
does not change over time.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>The existing force is averaged for the group of atoms, component by
|
||
|
component. The actual force on each atom is then set to the average
|
||
|
value plus the component specified in this command. This means each
|
||
|
atom in the group receives the same force.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>If any of the arguments is specified as NULL then the forces in that
|
||
|
dimension are not changed. Note that this is not the same as
|
||
|
specifying a 0.0 value, since that sets all forces to the same average
|
||
|
value without adding in any additional force.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>The forces due to this fix are also imposed during an energy
|
||
|
minimization, invoked by the <A HREF = "minimize.html">minimize</A> command.
