multi-modules worked at the same time?

Hi,
I am new in this plateform, and have some questions in general concerning the LIGGGHTS.

As highlighted by various features, the LIGGGHTS is able to simulate heat transfer problems in complex particle systems. In parallel, the SPH and Electrostatic mudules are available also within this LIGGGHTS package.

Just wonder if we are free to select more than one moduel, such as, these three modules at the same time to simulate the heat transfer processes in, e.g., nano-scaled porous structures?

Thanks in advance

Yes, most of the models can be combined. See pair styles hbrid and hybrid/overlay. However, e.g. an SPH-DEM interaction is not available.
If you are looking mostly at nano-scaled structures, I'd rather use LAMMPS and post question to the lammps-users mailing list. LIGGGHTS focuses on macro-scale models.
