liggghtsCommandModel_readLiggghtsData command

Syntax

Defined in liggghtsCommmands dictionary.

liggghtsCommandModels
(
   readLiggghtsData
);
readLiggghtsDataProps0
{
    startIndex "scalar1";
    verbose ;
    exactTiming ;
    filePath
    (
        "word"
    );
    runFirst "bool1";
    runEveryCouplingStep "bool2";
    startTime "scalar2";
    endTime "scalar3";
    timeInterval "scalar4";
}

  • scalar1 = start index of data file to be read

  • verbose = (default off) flag for verbose run

  • exactTiming = flag indicating that start time should be kept even during a coupling interval

  • filePath = path to LIGGGHTS data file. Each word in a new line, numbers and symbols need special treatment (e.g. $couplingInterval will be replaced by correct coupling interval in the simulation)

  • bool1 = true if to be run at first timestep only (prio 1)

  • bool2 = true if to be run at every coupling step (prio 2)

  • scalar2 = if bool2 and bool3 false then starts at scalar2 (prio 3) run

  • scalar3 = if bool2 and bool3 false then it ends at scalar3 (prio 3) run

  • scalar4 = if bool2 and bool3 false then it repeats at scalar3 increasing the data file index (prio 3) run

Examples

liggghtsCommandModels
(
   readLiggghtsData
);
readLiggghtsDataProps0
{
    startIndex 0;
    exactTiming true;
    filePath
    (
        dotdot
        slash
        DEM
        slash
        packing.data
    );
    runFirst off;
    runEveryCouplingStep off;
    startTime 0.002;
    endTime 0.012;
    timeInterval 0.001;
}

Description

The readLiggghtsData liggghtsCommand Model can be used to read liggghts data files into liggghts during runtime of a coupled simulation.
