Detailed Description

This is a VirtualSite that computes the particle location as a weighted average of three other particle's locations.

Assuming the weights add up to 1, this means the virtual site is in the plane of the three particles.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ThreeParticleAverageSite ( int  particle1,
int  particle2,
int  particle3,
double  weight1,
double  weight2,
double  weight3 
)

Create a new ThreeParticleAverageSite virtual site.

Normally the weights should add up to 1, although this is not strictly required.

Parameters:
particle1 the index of the first particle
particle2 the index of the second particle
particle3 the index of the third particle
weight1 the weight factor (between 0 and 1) for the first particle
weight2 the weight factor (between 0 and 1) for the second particle
weight2 the weight factor (between 0 and 1) for the third particle

Member Function Documentation

double getWeight ( int  particle  )  const

Get the weight factor used for a particle this virtual site depends on.

Parameters:
particle the particle to get (between 0 and getNumParticles())
Returns:
the weight factor used for that particle
