SPRING_V0 = [real (array)] 

Description: Consider the bias potential of the form: where the sum runs over all () coordinates the potential acts upon (), which are defined in the ICONST-file by setting the status to 8. Optionally, the position of minimum () can be shifted at a constant rate , i.e.


The parameter SPRING_V0 defines the rate at which the position of minimum () of the harmonic bias potential of the form: is shifted, where the sum runs over all () coordinates the potential acts upon (), which are defined in the ICONST-file by setting the status to 8. The units of SPRING_V0 are , where corresponds to the units of the coordinate the potential acts upon (e.g., for coordinates with flag R, for coordinates with flag A, dimensionless for coordinates with flag W, etc...). The number of items defined via SPRING_V0 must be equal to , otherwise the calculation terminates with an error message.
