Hi,
  I have a molecule consisting of 4 atoms  1-2-3-4 .
The paper parameterizing the molecule has reported combination of following multiple set of dihedral terms by fitting the dihedral angle distributions of this tetra-atomic molecule :
      theta0         K     n
    180           1.96   1      0              0.18   2
     0             0.33    3
     0            0.12     4

Now, I was trying to incorporate this dihedral terms in my gromacs topology file: My question is , is it possible to use Proper dihedral angles four time for the same dihdral angles :
i.e
If I write the dihedral part of topology file in the following way, will it be OK so that Gromacs will add them up ?
[dihedrals]
1  2  3  4     1    180.00    1.96   1
1  2  3  4     1     0    0.18   2
1  2  3  4     1     0    0.33   3
1  2  3  4     1     0    0.12   4

Or, will it consider only the last one ?

They are additive.  Surely this is in the manual somewhere.

Indeed. Sanku can also try several 1-step runs that add in more of them, and see that the energy is changing.

If it is not the case, Am I supposed to convert them into Ryckert Bellman type and sum them up ?
Any suggestion will be helpful.
