21. For simulations that use forcefields, the interactions of a system of particles are governed by an analytic expression that represents the potential energy surface, the energy expression. For large systems, the energy expression can consist of many terms and so the Forcite code provides an automated way of constructing it. Key elements of this construction are the forcefield type (potential type) and the (forcefield) atom type.
