Popis: Following the full realization of the importance of noncovalent interactions, finding and characterizing stationary points (SP), of various order, for weakly bound oligomers have become important tasks for computational chemists. An efficient algorithm and an associated computer code, called oligoCGO, are described, facilitating constrained geometry optimization of oligomers of arbitrary structure and complexity and normal-mode vibrational analysis at nonstationary geometries. To minimize the adverse effects of nonzero forces on harmonic vibrational analyses at constrained stationary points (cSP), two residual gradient correction (RGC) schemes are proposed. RGC
