relentless.simulate.AnglePotentialTabulator

class relentless.simulate.AnglePotentialTabulator(potentials, num)

Tabulate one or more angle potentials.

Enables evaluation of energy, force, and derivative at different angle values (i.e. \(\theta\)) on a range \(\left[ 0, \pi \right]\).

Parameters:

• potentials (AnglePotential or array_like) – The angle potential(s) to be tabulated. If array_like, all elements must be AnglePotentials.

• num (int) – The number of points (value of \(\theta\)) at which to tabulate and evaluate the potential.

Methods

derivative(key, var[, x])	Evaluates and accumulates derivative for all potentials.
energy(key[, x])	Evaluates and accumulates energy for all potentials.
force(key[, x])	Evaluates and accumulates force for all potentials.

Attributes

linear_space	x values spaced linearly from start to stop.
num	The number of points at which to tabulate/evaluate the potential, must be at least 2.
potentials	The individual potentials that are tabulated.
squared_space	x values spaced linearly from start**2` to ``stop**2.
start	The x value at which to start tabulation.
stop	The x value at which to stop tabulation.
types	The types of the potentials.

derivative(key, var, x=None)

Evaluates and accumulates derivative for all potentials.

Parameters:

• key (str) – The key for which to evaluate the derivative for each potential.
