<P><B>Description:</B>
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Set the formula(s) LAMMPS uses to compute angle interactions between
|
|
triplets of atoms, which remain in force for the duration of the
|
|
simulation. The list of angle triplets is read in by a
|
|
<A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> or <A HREF = "read_restart.html">read_restart</A> command
|
|
from a data or restart file.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Hybrid models where angles are computed using different angle
|
|
potentials can be setup using the <I>hybrid</I> angle style.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The coefficients associated with a angle style can be specified in a
|
|
data or restart file or via the <A HREF = "angle_coeff.html">angle_coeff</A> command.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>In the formulas listed for each angle style, <I>theta</I> is the angle
|
|
between the 3 atoms in the angle.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Note that when both an angle and pair style is defined, the
|
|
<A HREF = "special_bond.html">special_bond</A> command often needs to be used to
|
|
turn off (or weight) the pairwise interactions that would otherwise
|
|
exist between the 3 bonded atoms.

|

|

the style to display the formula it computes and coefficients

<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Angle styles can only be set for atom_styles that allow angles to be
|
|
defined.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Angle styles are part of the "molecular" package or other packages as
|
|
noted in their documentation. They are only enabled if LAMMPS was
|
|
built with that package. See the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#2_2">Making
|
|
LAMMPS</A> section for more info.
