Detailed Description

This class implements an interaction between groups of four particles that varies periodically with the torsion angle between them.

To use it, create a PeriodicTorsionForce object then call addTorsion() once for each torsion. After a torsion has been added, you can modify its force field parameters by calling setTorsionParameters().
