CoulombReaxFF

class CoulombReaxFF(r_cut=None, r_i=None, bonded_mode=None, doEEM=None)

Constructor of the Coulomb solver.

Parameters:
  • r_cut (PhysicalQuantity of type length) – The cutoff radius of this Coulomb solver.

  • r_i (PhysicalQuantity of type length) – The inner cutoff radius of the tapere function.

  • bonded_mode

    Either CoulombReaxFF.evaluateAll or CoulombReaxFF.evaluate4.

    If evaluateAll is chosen, interactions between all particles - even those that are connected by bonds - are evaluated, using the sigma and epsilon parameters.

    If evaluate4 is chosen, interactions between particles that are connected by a path of bonds of length less than four are omitted.

  • doEEM (bool) – Whether or not electronegativity equilibration (EEQ) is used to determine the charges. It is switched off by default.

classmethod getAllParameterNames()

Return the names of all used parameters as a list.

getAllParameters()

Return all parameters of this potential and their current values as a <parameterName / parameterValue> dictionary.

static getDefaults()

Get the default parameters of this potential and return them in form of a dictionary of <parameter name, default value> key-value pairs.

getParameter(parameterName)

Get the current value of the parameter parameterName.

setParameter(parameterName, value)

Set the parameter parameterName to the given value.

Parameters:
  • parameterName (str) – The name of the parameter that will be modified.

  • value – The new value that will be assigned to the parameter parameterName.
