I am trying to simulate a deformable particle and I was wondering what you have experienced as a good atom_style to use.
Because I thought that the atom_style bond or body (from Lammps) would suffice, but both appear to be non-existent in the Public version of Liggghts. At least, I thought that atom_style bond would, but when using I obtain the error message "ERROR: Invalid atom style (../atom.cpp:432)".
Hence, what would you think is a good atom_style to use for a deformable (donut like shaped) particle?

Hi bnaar,
Hi bnaar,
there is no functionality available in LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC to accurately simulate deformable particles.
Best wishes
