LIGGGHTS 1.1.6 (released 11. August 2010)

Introducing a couple of book-keeping patches, so the code should be much cleaner now.
A major re-write of the LIGGGHTS granular pair styles to allow for greater implementation flexibility is underway, but please be patient.

Fixed an issue where creating atoms with a restart pending lead to a crash - thanks to Thomas Wagner (TU Freiberg) for the bug report

Fixed two issues with the cohesion model - there was a bug in calculating the contact area. Also added a check to ensure the model is only used for 3d simulation. Thanks to George Marketos (Imperial College London) for calling attention to this.

As of version 1.1.6 a quality assurance check will be done by running automated testloops comparing various thermo outputs (e.g. energy) over time that are generated by different versions. Please see this page for details.
