You will have seen that the manual also says:<br>
<br>
The force<br>
on particles i, j, k and l due to the force on the virtual site are
computed through chain rule<br>
derivatives of the construction expression. This is exact and
conserves energy, but it does<br>
lead to relatively lengthy expressions that we do not include here
(over 200 floating-point<br>
operations). The interested reader can look at the source code in
vsite.c.<br>
<br>
Perhaps you should try this.<br>
