Description
"""""""""""
The *charmm* angle style uses the potential
.. math::
E = K (\theta - \theta_0)^2 + K_{ub} (r - r_{ub})^2
with an additional Urey_Bradley term based on the distance :math:`r` between
the first and third atoms in the angle. :math:`K`, :math:`\theta_0`,
:math:`K_{ub}`, and :math:`R_{ub}` are coefficients defined for each angle
type.
See :ref:`(MacKerell) <angle-MacKerell>` for a description of the CHARMM force
field.
The following coefficients must be defined for each angle type via the
:doc:`angle_coeff <angle_coeff>` command as in the example above, or in
the data file or restart files read by the :doc:`read_data <read_data>`
or :doc:`read_restart <read_restart>` commands:
* :math:`K` (energy)
* :math:`\theta_0` (degrees)
* :math:`K_{ub}` (energy/distance\^2)
* :math:`r_{ub}` (distance)
:math:`\theta_0` is specified in degrees, but LAMMPS converts it to
radians internally; hence :math:`K` is effectively energy per
radian\^2.
----------
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 on the :doc:`Speed packages <Speed_packages>` doc
page. 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 :doc:`Build package <Build_package>` doc page for more info.
You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
by including their suffix, or you can use the :doc:`-suffix command-line switch <Run_options>` when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can use the
:doc:`suffix <suffix>` command in your input script.
See :doc:`Speed packages <Speed_packages>` doc page for more
instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

""""""""""""
This angle style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
