        GeomCalc


We use this class to batch the geometry calculations and avoid duplications.
For example, you want to calculate the bond distance between atoms 1 and 2,
and also an dihedral angle involving these two atoms. Both calculations
require to calculate the vector between the mininum images of the two atoms,
but we don't want to do the calculation twice. With this class, we avoid
such duplications.

All geometry calculations take into account the peridoic boundary condition.

Basic usage:

  calc = GeomCalc()

  # Loads geometry-calculation requests.
  calc.addVector(...)
  calc.addDistance(...)
  calc.addAngle(...)
  calc.addTorsion(...)

  # Does calculations.
  calc(pbc, frame)

  # Gets results.
  vec = calc.getVector(...)
  dis = calc.getDistance(...)
  ang = calc.getAngle(...)
  dih = calc.getTorsion(...)

init(self)
(Constructor)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

call(self, pbc, fr)
(Call operator)

Perform all registered geometry calculations.

Parameters:

fr (traj.Frame)
pbc (Pbc)

addVector(self, from_gid, to_gid)

Add a vector calculation request.

Parameters:

to_gid (int)
from_gid (int)

addDistance(self, i_gid, j_gid)

Add a distance calculation request.

Parameters:

i_gid (int)
j_gid (int)

addAngle(self, i_gid, j_gid, k_gid)

Add an angle calculation request.

Parameters:

i_gid (int)
k_gid (int
The angle is defined by the two vectors: j==>i and j==>k.
)
j_gid (int)

addTorsion(self, i_gid, j_gid, k_gid, l_gid)


Add a torsion calculation request.

@type i_gid: C{int}
@type j_gid: C{int}
@type k_gid: C{int}
@type l_gid: C{int}

The torsion is defined by the four position vectors:

  i o           o l
     \         /
      \       /
     j o-----o k

In other words, it's the dihedral angle between the two planes: i-j-k
and j-k-l.

addCustom(self, cid, key=None, default=None)

Add a custom calculation item.

Parameters:

cid (Any hashable object) - Specify the type of the calculation. The results of this type of calculation can be obtained by calling .getCustom(c).
key (Any hashable object) - A particular calculation item of the type c. The result of this item can be obtained by this: .getCustom(c)[key].
default - The default result of the calculation item key.

addAnalyzer(self, analyzer)

Add a custom analyzer.

Parameters:

analyzer (Duck type that must define the following interface:
1. _precalc(self, calc) where calc is a GeomCalc object. This method should call calc.addCustom to add an calculation item of a custom calculation type.
2. _postcalc(self, calc, pbc, fr) where calc is a GeomCalc object, pbc is a Pbc object, and fr is a traj.Frame object. This method can get the calculation result by calling calc.getCustom and do further calculations as necessary to get the final analytic results.
)

getTorsion(self, i_gid, j_gid, k_gid, l_gid)

Get the torsion as defined by the four atoms: i_gid, j_gid, k_gid, and l_gid. See the docstring of addTorsion for more detail.

getCustom(self, cid)

Return all results of the custom calculation type c

Parameters:

cid (Any hashable object)
