7.6. Cross: End-Bond-Torsion

7.6.1. Functional Form

The End-Bond-Torsion Cross Potential has the functional form:

\(E=\left( {{R}_{jk}}-{{R}_{1,jk}} \right)\left[ {{B}_{1,ijkl}}\cos \left( {{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right)+{{B}_{2,ijkl}}\cos \left( 2{{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right)+{{B}_{3,ijkl}}\cos \left( 3{{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right) \right]\) \(\qquad +\left( {{R}_{kl}}-{{R}_{3,kl}} \right)\left[ {{C}_{1,ijkl}}\cos \left( {{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right)+{{C}_{2,ijkl}}\cos \left( 2{{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right)+{{C}_{3,ijkl}}\cos \left( 3{{\phi }_{ijkl}} \right) \right]\)

This term is part of the Class2 Dihedral Potential style.
