_restr_distance_min.A
Name:_restr_distance_min.A
Alias:
_restr_distance_min_A
Definition:
The weight associated with the difference between the
refined distance D and the prescribed minimum distance
(B or F) is given by the expression
w = A*(B/D)^C^ + E*exp((D-F)/G)
A and E are dimensionless weighting parameters.
Either function could be used alone by setting A or E to zero.
The default values of A and E are zero.
If A=0, B and C are undefined; if E=0, F and G are undefined.
A hard-sphere contact can be generated by setting E=1,
F=prescribed minimum distance and G=0. In this case G
(combined with a non-zero E) should be treated as a flag
indicating a hard-sphere interaction with a target distance
of F so as to avoid division by zero.
Type: Real
The permitted range is 0 → infinity
