sponge.potential.EnergyCell

class sponge.potential.EnergyCell(name: str = 'energy', length_unit: str = 'nm', energy_unit: str = 'kj/mol', use_pbc: bool = None, **kwargs)

Base class for energy terms. EnergyCell is usually used as a base class for individual energy terms in a classical force field. As the force field parameters usually has units, the units of the EnergyCell as an energy term should be the same as the units of the force field parameters, and not equal to the global units.

Note

B: Batchsize, i.e. number of walkers in simulation

Parameters

• name (str) – Name of energy. Default: ‘energy’

• length_unit (str) – Length unit. If None is given, it will be assigned with the global length unit. Default: ‘nm’

• energy_unit (str) – Energy unit. If None is given, it will be assigned with the global energy unit. Default: ‘kj/mol’

• use_pbc (bool) – Whether to use periodic boundary condition. Default: None.

• kwargs (dict) – Other parameters dictionary.

Returns

Tensor of energy, Tensor of shape (B, 1). Data type is float.

Supported Platforms:

Ascend GPU
