Abstract
By numerical simulation of the classical equations of motion the soliton dynamics in stacked systems containing formamide and thioformamide units were studied. Each unit in the stack has three geometrical degrees of freedom. The existence of solitary waves in both systems and their transmission, absorption and reflection at impurities were numerically studied.Keywords
