dihedral_style cosine/shift/exp command :h3
dihedral_style cosine/shift/exp/omp command :h3
[Syntax:]
dihedral_style cosine/shift/exp :pre
[Examples:]
dihedral_style cosine/shift/exp
dihedral_coeff 1 10.0 45.0 2.0 :pre
[Description:]
The {cosine/shift/exp} dihedral style uses the potential
:c,image(Eqs/dihedral_cosine_shift_exp.jpg)
where Umin, theta, and a are defined for each dihedral type.
The potential is bounded between \[-Umin:0\] and the minimum is located
at the angle theta0. The a parameter can be both positive or negative
and is used to control the spring constant at the equilibrium.
The spring constant is given by k=a exp(a) Umin/ \[2 (Exp(a)-1)\].
For a>3 k/Umin = a/2 to better than 5% relative error. For negative
values of the a parameter, the spring constant is essentially zero,
and anharmonic terms takes over. The potential is furthermore well
behaved in the limit a->0, where it has been implemented to linear
order in a for a < 0.001.
The following coefficients must be defined for each dihedral type via
the "dihedral_coeff"_dihedral_coeff.html command as in the example
above, or in the data file or restart files read by the
"read_data"_read_data.html or "read_restart"_read_restart.html
commands:
umin (energy)
theta (angle)
A (real number) :ul

Styles with a {gpu}, {intel}, {kk}, {omp}, or {opt} suffix are
functionally the same as the corresponding style without the suffix.
They have been optimized to run faster, depending on your available
hardware, as discussed on the "Speed packages"_Speed_packages.html doc
page. The accelerated styles take the same arguments and should
produce the same results, except for round-off and precision issues.
These accelerated styles are part of the GPU, USER-INTEL, KOKKOS,
USER-OMP and OPT packages, respectively. They are only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with those packages. See the "Build
package"_Build_package.html doc page for more info.
You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
by including their suffix, or you can use the "-suffix command-line
switch"_Run_options.html when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can use the
"suffix"_suffix.html command in your input script.
See the "Speed packages"_Speed_packages.html doc page for more
instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

[Restrictions:]
This dihedral style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
USER-MISC package. See the "Build package"_Build_package.html doc
page for more info.
