Test Case 7: Linked rigid bodies

8 biphenyl molecules in cubic boundary conditions. The NVE ensemble is used. Each phenyl ring is treated as a rigid body, with a constraint bond to the other ring of the molecule. In the centre of each ring are three massless charge sites which imparts a quadrupole moment to the ring.
