Description
"""""""""""
The *class2* improper style uses the potential
.. math::
E = & E_i + E_{aa} \\
E_i = & K [ \frac{\chi_{ijkl} + \chi_{kjli} + \chi_{ljik}}{3} - \chi_0 ]^2 \\
E_{aa} = & M_1 (\theta_{ijk} - \theta_1) (\theta_{kjl} - \theta_3) + \\
& M_2 (\theta_{ijk} - \theta_1) (\theta_{ijl} - \theta_2) + \\
& M_3 (\theta_{ijl} - \theta_2) (\theta_{kjl} - \theta_3)
where :math:`E_i` is the improper term and :math:`E_{aa}` is an
angle-angle term. The 3 :math:`\chi` terms in :math:`E_i` are an
average over 3 out-of-plane angles.
The 4 atoms in an improper quadruplet (listed in the data file read by
the :doc:`read_data <read_data>` command) are ordered I,J,K,L.
:math:`\chi_{ijkl}` refers to the angle between the plane of I,J,K and
the plane of J,K,L, and the bond JK lies in both planes. Similarly for
:math:`\chi_{kjli}` and :math:`\chi_{ljik}`.
Note that atom J appears in the common bonds (JI, JK, JL) of all 3 X
terms. Thus J (the 2nd atom in the quadruplet) is the atom of
symmetry in the 3 :math:`\chi` angles.
The subscripts on the various :math:`\theta`\ s refer to different
combinations of 3 atoms (I,J,K,L) used to form a particular angle.
E.g. :math:`\theta_{ijl}` is the angle formed by atoms I,J,L with J
in the middle. :math:`\theta_1`, :math:`\theta_2`, :math:`\theta_3`
are the equilibrium positions of those angles. Again,
atom J (the 2nd atom in the quadruplet) is the atom of symmetry in the
theta angles, since it is always the center atom.
Since atom J is the atom of symmetry, normally the bonds J-I, J-K, J-L
would exist for an improper to be defined between the 4 atoms, but
this is not required.
See :ref:`(Sun) <improper-Sun>` for a description of the COMPASS class2 force field.
Coefficients for the :math:`E_i` and :math:`E_{aa}` formulas must be
defined for each
improper type via the :doc:`improper_coeff <improper_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.
These are the 2 coefficients for the :math:`E_i` formula:
* :math:`K` (energy/radian\^2)
* :math:`\chi_0` (degrees)
:math:`\chi_0` is specified in degrees, but LAMMPS converts it to radians
internally; hence the units of K are in energy/radian\^2.
For the :math:`E_{aa}` formula, each line in a
:doc:`improper_coeff <improper_coeff>` command in the input script lists
7 coefficients, the first of which is *aa* to indicate they are
AngleAngle coefficients. In a data file, these coefficients should be
listed under a *AngleAngle Coeffs* heading and you must leave out the
*aa*, i.e. only list 6 coefficients after the improper type.
* *aa*
* :math:`M_1` (energy/distance)
* :math:`M_2` (energy/distance)
* :math:`M_3` (energy/distance)
* :math:`\theta_1` (degrees)
* :math:`\theta_2` (degrees)
* :math:`\theta_3` (degrees)
The theta values are specified in degrees, but LAMMPS converts them to
radians internally; hence the units of M are in energy/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 the :doc:`Speed packages <Speed_packages>` doc page for more
instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

This improper style can only be used if LAMMPS was built with the
CLASS2 package. See the :doc:`Build package <Build_package>` doc
