[gmx-users] Re: parameter of RB potential for OPLS force field

[Yanmei Song]

They are CH3-SI-O-SI, SI-O-SI-CH3 and SI-O-SI-O.  I have looked up
ffoplsaabon.itp. it doesn't include any dihedral consisting of SI. And the
literatures only have the parameters for periodic potential. Thank you so
much for your kind help!
