Description
"""""""""""
The *umbrella* improper style uses the following potential, which is
commonly referred to as a classic inversion and used in the
:ref:`DREIDING <howto_4>` force field:
.. image:: Eqs/improper_umbrella.jpg
:align: center
where K is the force constant and omega is the angle between the IL
axis and the IJK plane:
.. image:: Eqs/umbrella.jpg
:align: center
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.
See :ref:`(Mayo) <umbrella-Mayo>` for a description of the DREIDING force field.
The following coefficients must be defined for each improper type via
the :doc:`improper_coeff <improper_coeff>` command as in the example
above, or in the data file or restart files read by the
:doc:`read_data <read_data>` or :doc:`read_restart <read_restart>`
commands:
* K (energy)
* omega0 (degrees)
----------
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 in :doc:`Section_accelerate <Section_accelerate>`
of the manual. 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 :ref:`Making LAMMPS <start_3>` section for more info.
You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
by including their suffix, or you can use the :ref:`-suffix command-line switch <start_7>` when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can
use the :doc:`suffix <suffix>` command in your input script.
See :doc:`Section_accelerate <Section_accelerate>` of the manual for
more instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.
----------
Restrictions
""""""""""""
This improper style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
MOLECULE package (which it is by default). See the :ref:`Making LAMMPS <start_3>` section for more info on packages.
