AmoebaInPlaneAngleForce
(*args)¶ This class implements an interaction at trigonal centers corresponding to the projected in-plane angle bend energy between four particles. The interaction is defined by a 6th order polynomial in the angle between them. Only the quadratic term is set per-angle. The coefficients of the higher order terms each have a single value that is set globally.
To use it, create an AmoebaInPlaneAngleForce object then call addAngle() once for each angle. After an angle has been added, you can modify its force field parameters by calling setAngleParameters(). This will have no effect on Contexts that already exist unless you call updateParametersInContext().

updateParametersInContext
(self, context)¶ Update the per-angle parameters in a Context to match those stored in this Force object. This method provides an efficient method to update certain parameters in an existing Context without needing to reinitialize it. Simply call setAngleParameters() to modify this object’s parameters, then call updateParametersInContext() to copy them over to the Context.
The only information this method updates is the values of per-angle parameters. The set of particles involved in an angle cannot be changed, nor can new angles be added.
-
setUsesPeriodicBoundaryConditions
(self, periodic)¶ Set whether this force should apply periodic boundary conditions when calculating displacements. Usually this is not appropriate for bonded forces, but there are situations when it can be useful.
-
usesPeriodicBoundaryConditions
(self) → bool¶ Returns whether or not this force makes use of periodic boundary conditions.
Returns: true if force uses PBC and false otherwise Return type: bool
-
__copy__
(self) → Force¶
-
getForceGroup
(self) → int¶ Get the force group this Force belongs to.
-
setForceGroup
(self, group)¶ Set the force group this Force belongs to.
Parameters: group (int) – the group index. Legal values are between 0 and 31 (inclusive).
