angle_style cross command :h3
[Syntax:]
angle_style cross :pre
[Examples:]
angle_style cross
angle_coeff 1 200.0 100.0 100.0 1.25 1.25 107.0 :pre
[Description:]
The {cross} angle style uses a potential that couples the bond stretches of
a bend with the angle stretch of that bend:
:c,image(Eqs/angle_cross.jpg)
where r12,0 is the rest value of the bond length between atom 1 and 2,
r32,0 is the rest value of the bond length between atom 2 and 2,
and theta0 is the rest value of the angle. KSS is the force constant of
the bond stretch-bond stretch term and KBS0 and KBS1 are the force constants
of the bond stretch-angle stretch terms.
The following coefficients must be defined for each angle type via the
"angle_coeff"_angle_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:
KSS (energy/distance^2)
KBS0 (energy/distance/rad)
KBS1 (energy/distance/rad)
r12,0 (distance)
r32,0 (distance)
theta0 (degrees) :ul
Theta0 is specified in degrees, but LAMMPS converts it to radians
internally; hence the units of KBS0 and KBS1 are in energy/distance/radian.
[Restrictions:]
This angle style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
USER_YAFF package. See the "Build package"_Build_package.html doc
page for more info.
