<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: Here are important points to take note of when
|
|
defining LAMMPS dihedral coefficients for the harmonic style, so that
|
|
they are compatible with how harmonic dihedrals are defined by other
|
|
force fields:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<UL><LI>The LAMMPS convention is that the trans position = 180 degrees, while
|
|
in some force fields trans = 0 degrees.
|
|
|
|
<LI>Some force fields reverse the sign convention on <I>d</I>.
|
|
|
|
<LI>Some force fields let <I>n</I> be positive or negative which corresponds to
|
|
<I>d</I> = 1 or -1 for the harmonic style.

|
<P>Styles with a <I>cuda</I>, <I>gpu</I>, <I>omp</I>, or <I>opt</I> 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 in <A HREF = "Section_accelerate.html">Section_accelerate</A> of the
|
|
manual. The accelerated styles take the same arguments and should
|
|
produce the same results, except for round-off and precision issues.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>These accelerated styles are part of the USER-CUDA, GPU, USER-OMP and OPT
|
|
packages, respectively. They are only enabled if LAMMPS was built with
|
|
those packages. See the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_3">Making LAMMPS</A>
|
|
section for more info.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
|
|
by including their suffix, or you can use the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_7">-suffix command-line
|
|
switch</A> when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can
|
|
use the <A HREF = "suffix.html">suffix</A> command in your input script.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>See <A HREF = "Section_accelerate.html">Section_accelerate</A> of the manual for
|
|
more instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>This dihedral style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
|
|
MOLECULAR package (which it is by default). See the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_3">Making
|
|
LAMMPS</A> section for more info on packages.
