pair_style peri/lps

Submitted by okeles on Fri, 10/22/2010 - 19:10

Hi,

When I use
pair_style peri/lps for the pair style, I get this error:
ERROR: Invalid atom style

I wonder if it is possible to use this pair style with LIGGGHTS or not.

Thanks,

Ozgur Keles

Hi Ozgur Keles,
I guess LIGGGHTS is built only for granular style/package.
Best,

Hi Ozgur,

Ram is right - you need to build with the right package - "make yes-peri" and re-compilation installs the peridynamics package. Yet peri/lps is not available in LIGGGHTS yet - current LIGGGHTS is based on LAMMPS30march10 and peri/lps has been added to LAMMPS afterwards.

Changes to main LAMMPS will be added to LIGGGHTS only once or twice a year (because this is a lot of work). I recommend using a recent LAMMPS version if you want to use peri/lps now.
