autodoxyclass¶
Input¶
The autodoxyclass
directive will insert the docstring of the class:
.. autodoxyclass:: OpenMM::Force
which produces something like
.. :cpp:class:: OpenMM::Force
Force's documentation.
If you want to automatically document members, there is a members option:
.. autodoxyclass:: OpenMM::Force
:members:
which will automatically insert documentation for each of the members.
You can also add content to the directive which will appear after the class docstring but before the methods, like a summary table.
.. autodoxyclass:: OpenMM::Force
:members:
.. rubric:: Methods
.. autodoxysummary::
~OpenMM::Force::getForceGroup
~OpenMM::Force::setForceGroup
~OpenMM::Force::usesPeriodicBoundaryConditions
Output¶
.. autodoxyclass:: OpenMM::Platform

class
OpenMM::
Platform
¶ A
Platform
defines an implementation of all the kernels needed to perform some calculation. More precisely, aPlatform
object acts as a registry for a set of KernelFactory objects which together implement the kernels. ThePlatform
class, in turn, provides a static registry of all availablePlatform
objects.To get a
Platform
object, callPlatform& platform Platform::findPlatform(kernelNames);
passing in the names of all kernels that will be required for the calculation you plan to perform. It will return the fastest available
Platform
which provides implementations of all the specified kernels. You can then callcreateKernel()
to construct particular kernels as needed.

class
OpenMM::
Integrator
¶ An
Integrator
defines a method for simulating aSystem
by integrating the equations of motion. This is an abstract class. Subclasses define particular integration methods.Each
Integrator
object is bound to a particularContext
which it integrates. This connection is specified by passing theIntegrator
as an argument to the constructor of theContext

getStepSize
() const¶ Get the size of each time step, in picoseconds. If this integrator uses variable time steps, the size of the most recent step is returned.
Returns: the step size, measured in ps
-
void
setStepSize
(double size)¶ Set the size of each time step, in picoseconds. If this integrator uses variable time steps, the effect of calling this method is undefined, and it may simply be ignored.
Parameters: - size – the step size, measured in ps
-
double
getConstraintTolerance
() const¶ Get the distance tolerance within which constraints are maintained, as a fraction of the constrained distance.
-
void
setConstraintTolerance
(double tol)¶ Set the distance tolerance within which constraints are maintained, as a fraction of the constrained distance.

void
step
(int steps) = 0¶ Advance a simulation through time by taking a series of time steps.
Parameters: - steps – the number of time steps to take

Force
¶ Force
objects apply forces to the particles in aSystem
, or alter their behavior in other ways. This is an abstract class. Subclasses define particular forces.More specifically, a
Force
object can do any or all of the following:- Add a contribution to the force on each particle
- Add a contribution to the potential energy of the
System
- Modify the positions and velocities of particles at the start of each time step
- Define parameters which are stored in the
Context
and can be modified by the user - Change the values of parameters defined by other
Force
objects at the start of each time step
Forces may be organized into “force groups”. This is used for multiple time step integration, and allows subsets of the Forces in a
System
to be evaluated at different times. By default, all Forces are in group 0. CallsetForceGroup()
to change this. SomeForce
subclasses may provide additional methods to further split their computations into multiple groups. Be aware that particular Platforms may place restrictions on the use of force groups, such as requiring all nonbonded forces to be in the same group.Methods
getForceGroup
Get the force group this Force
belongs to.setForceGroup
Set the force group this Force
belongs to.usesPeriodicBoundaryConditions
Returns whether or not this force makes use of periodic boundary conditions. -
