<H3>angle_style charmm command

<P><B>Syntax:</B>

<PRE>angle_style charmm

<P><B>Examples:</B>

<PRE>angle_style charmm
angle_coeff 1 300.0 107.0 50.0 3.0
</PRE>
<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>The <I>charmm</I> angle style uses the potential

<CENTER><IMG SRC = "Eqs/angle_charmm.jpg">
</CENTER>
<P>with an additional Urey_Bradley term based on the distance <I>r</I> between
the 1st and 3rd atoms in the angle. K, theta0, Kub, and Rub are
coefficients defined for each angle type.
</P>
<P>See <A HREF = "#MacKerell">(MacKerell)</A> for a description of the CHARMM force
field.
</P>
<P>The following coefficients must be defined for each angle type via the
<A HREF = "angle_coeff.html">angle_coeff</A> command as in the example above, or in
the data file or restart files read by the <A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A>
or <A HREF = "read_restart.html">read_restart</A> commands:
</P>
<UL><LI>K (energy/radian^2)
<LI>theta0 (degrees)
<LI>K_ub (energy/distance^2)
<LI>r_ub (distance)
</UL>
<P>Theta0 is specified in degrees, but LAMMPS converts it to radians
internally; hence the units of K are in energy/radian^2.
</P>
<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
</P>
<P>This angle 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#2_3">Making
LAMMPS</A> section for more info on packages.
