Set the formula(s) LAMMPS uses to compute angle interactions between
triplets of atoms, which remain in force for the duration of the
simulation. The list of angle triplets is read in by a

:doc:`read_data <read_data>` or :doc:`read_restart <read_restart>` command

Hybrid models where angles are computed using different angle
potentials can be setup using the *hybrid* angle style.
The coefficients associated with a angle style can be specified in a
data or restart file or via the :doc:`angle\_coeff <angle_coeff>` command.
