Detailed Description

This class implements an interaction between pairs of particles that varies harmonically with the distance between them.

To use it, create a HarmonicBondForce object then call addBond() once for each bond. After a bond has been added, you can modify its force field parameters by calling setBondParameters().

def __del__ (   self  ) 

__del__(self)

Reimplemented from Force.

def __init__ (   self,
  args 
)

__init__(self) -> HarmonicBondForce __init__(self, HarmonicBondForce other) -> HarmonicBondForce

Create a HarmonicBondForce.

def addBond (   self,
  args 
)

addBond(self, int particle1, int particle2, double length, double k) -> int

Add a bond term to the force field.

Parameters:
particle1 the index of the first particle connected by the bond
particle2 the index of the second particle connected by the bond
length the equilibrium length of the bond, measured in nm
k the harmonic force constant for the bond, measured in kJ/mol/nm^2
def getBondParameters (   self,
  args 
)

getBondParameters(self, int index)

Get the force field parameters for a bond term.

Parameters:
index the index of the bond for which to get parameters
particle1 the index of the first particle connected by the bond
particle2 the index of the second particle connected by the bond
length the equilibrium length of the bond, measured in nm
k the harmonic force constant for the bond, measured in kJ/mol/nm^2
def getNumBonds (   self  ) 

getNumBonds(self) -> int

Get the number of harmonic bond stretch terms in the potential function

def setBondParameters (   self,
  args 
)

setBondParameters(self, int index, int particle1, int particle2, double length, double k)

Set the force field parameters for a bond term.

Parameters:
index the index of the bond for which to set parameters
particle1 the index of the first particle connected by the bond
particle2 the index of the second particle connected by the bond
length the equilibrium length of the bond, measured in nm
k the harmonic force constant for the bond, measured in kJ/mol/nm^2
