IMP::misc::WormLikeChain Class Reference

Detailed Description

Worm-like-chain energy for polymer chains.

This function implements one polymer force/extension curve. It is a physical energy and all the inputs are in angstroms and the outputs in kcal/mol (/angstrom).

Note:
The actual worm like chain force blows up as the extension approaches the maximum. Since that makes optimization problematic, we just linearly extend the force after 99% of maximum.
