Class NormalModesMolecular

java.lang.Object

etomica.normalmode.NormalModesMolecular

All Implemented Interfaces:

NormalModes

public class NormalModesMolecular
extends java.lang.Object
implements NormalModes

Uses analysis of 2nd derivatives to compute the normal modes for a Bravais lattice with a basis, occupied by atoms that interact with a simple, spherically-symmetric soft potential.

Method Detail

calculateModes

public void calculateModes()

setHarmonicFudge

public void setHarmonicFudge(double newHarmonicFudge)

Description copied from interface: NormalModes

Set the fudge factor applied to frequencies. The squared-frequencies returned by getOmegaSquared will be the nominal values divided by the given fudge factor. Thus a smaller value of this fudge factor will make for "tighter" harmonic springs, corresponding to to smaller deviation from the lattice sites.

Specified by:

setHarmonicFudge in interface NormalModes

setTemperature

public void setTemperature(double newTemperature)

Description copied from interface: NormalModes

Set the temperature used for calculating omega-squared. Omega-squared is kT/eigenvalue.

Specified by:

setTemperature in interface NormalModes

getFileName

public java.lang.String getFileName()

setFileName

public void setFileName(java.lang.String filename)

getWaveVectorFactory

public WaveVectorFactory getWaveVectorFactory()

Description copied from interface: NormalModes

Returns a factory that provides the wave vectors and coefficients for the periodic system.

Specified by:

getWaveVectorFactory in interface NormalModes

getOmegaSquared

public double[][] getOmegaSquared()

Description copied from interface: NormalModes

Returns an array giving the frequencies (squared) corresponding to the normal-mode motions. First index indicates the wave vector, and second index indicates the eigenvector. Length of second index is coordinateDim.

Specified by:

getOmegaSquared in interface NormalModes

getEigenvectors

public double[][][] getEigenvectors()

Description copied from interface: NormalModes

First index corresponds to the wave vector; second index gives the eigenvector, and third index gives the elements of the vector. Length of 2nd and 3rd dimensions is coordinateDim.

Specified by:
