Molecular mechanics cubic terms

Hach molecular mechanics method has its own functional form MM+. AMBER, OPL.S, and BIO+. The functional form describes the an alytic form of each of th e term s in th e poteri tial. For exam pie, MM+h as both a quadratic and a cubic stretch term in th e poten tial whereas AMBER, OPES, and BIO+ have only c nadratic stretch term s, I h e functional form is referred to here as the force field. For exam pie, th e fun ction al form of a qu adratic stretch with force constant K, and equilibrium distance i q is ...
