improper_style inversion/harmonic command :h3
[Syntax:]
improper_style inversion/harmonic :pre
[Examples:]
improper_style inversion/harmonic
improper_coeff 1 18.776340 0.000000 :pre
[Description:]
The {inversion/harmonic} improper style follows the Wilson-Decius
out-of-plane angle definition and uses an harmonic potential:
:c,image(Eqs/improper_inversion_harmonic.jpg)
where K is the force constant and omega is the angle evaluated for
all three axis-plane combinations centered around the atom I. For
the IL axis and the IJK plane omega looks as follows:
:c,image(JPG/umbrella.jpg)
Note that the {inversion/harmonic} angle term evaluation differs to
the "improper_umbrella"_improper_umbrella.html due to the cyclic
evaluation of all possible angles omega.
The following coefficients must be defined for each improper type via
the "improper_coeff"_improper_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:
K (energy)
omega0 (degrees) :ul
If omega0 = 0 the potential term has a minimum for the planar
structure. Otherwise it has two minima at +/- omega0, with a barrier
in between.

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