External Interactions

An external potential is a potential that acts on each atom, whose value depends only on the atomic position and atom type index.

All of the angle interaction classes implement a common interface, which is described here.

External Interaction Classes

• LamellarOrderExternal - designed to induce layers
• SlitExternal - 1D confinement to a slit
• BoxExternal - 3D confinement to a box
• OrthoBoxExternal - Generalized confinement to a box, channel or slit
