Gets Around
Peizhi,

The documentation is a little out of date.
The following keywords are available in the fragment blocks of AIMD/MM
> 'size',
> 'index_start',
> 'shake',
> 'switching',
> 'bond_spring',
> 'angle_spring',
> 'self_interaction',
> 'incell',
> 'cross_bond_spring',
> 'bond_morse',
> 'dihedral_spring',
> 'dihedral',
> 'coord_number',

The input (in au) for bond_morse, dihedral, and dihedral_spring are as follows

bond_morse i1 i2 k a re
where
E = E + k*( 1.0d0 - dexp(-a*(r-re))) )**2
and
r is the distance between atoms i1 and i2


dihedral_spring i1 i2 i3 i4 k theta0
where
E = E + k*(phi-theta0)**2
and
phi is the torsion angle spanned by atoms i1 i2 i3 and i4


dihedral i1 i2 i3 i4 k a0 theta0
where
E = E + k*(1.0+cos(a0*phi-phi0))

I still haven't implemented link atoms but will probably do so in the near future.

Hope that helps
Eric
