dihedral_style quadratic command :h3
dihedral_style quadratic/omp command :h3
[Syntax:]
dihedral_style quadratic :pre
[Examples:]
dihedral_style quadratic
dihedral_coeff 100.0 80.0 :pre
[Description:]
The {quadratic} dihedral style uses the potential:
:c,image(Eqs/dihedral_quadratic.jpg)
This dihedral potential can be used to keep a dihedral in a predefined
value (cis=zero, right-hand convention is used).
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:
K (energy/radian^2)
phi0 (degrees) :ul
:line
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 "Section 5"_Section_accelerate.html
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 "Making
LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#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 "-suffix command-line
switch"_Section_start.html#start_6 when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can
use the "suffix"_suffix.html command in your input script.
See "Section 5"_Section_accelerate.html of the manual for
more instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.
:line
[Restrictions:]
This angle style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
USER_MISC package. See the "Making LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#start_3
section for more info on packages.
