evalCovalent

evalCovalent

Analyze coordinates for covalent (bond, angle, improper dihedral) violations.

Usage: evalCovalent [options] <coordinate files to analyze>

where option is one or more of:

-bondThresh <val>           - bond length difference (in Angstrom) from
                              equilibrium above which a      violation is
                              flagged [0.05]
-angleThresh <val>          - bond angle difference (in degrees) from
                              equilibrium above which a      violation is
                              flagged [2]
-imprThresh <val>           - impropropoer dihedral difference (in degrees)
                              from equilibrium above      which a violation is
                              flagged [2]
-selection <atom selection> - atoms to include in analysis selection
-psf <file name>            - PSF file - required for nonstandard residues
-par <file name>            - filename containing alternate parameters - may
                              be specified more than once.
-top <file name>            - filename containing alternate topology. To
                              replace     the topology for a system, specify
                              the system name as system:filename using     a
                              colon as a separator.- may be specified more
                              than once.
-fixImpropers               - If specified, set fixMethylImpropers and
                              fixProtonImpropers to True in
                              protocol.initCoords, else they are set to
                              False
-model <integer>            - PDB model number to read [1]
