Collective variables (CVs) define subset of configuration space in which the free energy is being calculated.
Collective variables (CVs) define a subset of configuration space in which free energy is being calculated.


The CV definition can be read either from the input file or from an external file. The mode will depend on configuration in the [[General setup|[files]]] section. If the value of the fcvsdef key contains the name of the group (e.g. string starting with the "{" character) then the CV definition will be read from this group in the input file. Otherwise the CV definition will be read from a file with the name provided by the fcvsdef key. In the later case, the CV definition must be in the {MAIN} group (which is implicit and can be omitted in the file).

The group or file can contain several collective variables. Each collective variable is specified in a single section. The name of section defines type of CV. The section contains the name key containing a unique CV name and other keys specific for a given CV type.
