SPRING_K

SPRING_K = [real (array)]

Description: The parameter SPRING_K defines force constants ( $\kappa _{\mu })$ for the harmonic bias of the following form: ${\tilde {V}}(\xi _{1},\dots ,\xi _{M_{8}})=\sum _{\mu =1}^{M}{\frac {1}{2}}\kappa _{\mu }(\xi _{\mu }(q)-\xi _{0\mu })^{2}\;$ where the sum runs over all ( $M_{8}$ ) coordinates the potential acts upon ( $\xi _{\mu }(q)$ ), which are defined in the ICONST-file by setting the status to 8. The number of items defined via SPRING_K must be equal to $M_{8}$ , otherwise the calculation terminates with an error message.
