Fix Move Command for Multispheres?

Submitted by DAC_UC on Thu, 10/26/2017 - 03:28

Hi Everybody,

I am interested in simulating annular shear with multisphere particles. This system contains a moving rough wall that is made from particles.

For spheres, the moving wall can be set up using a "fix move" command (e.g. fix mv1 wall1 move rotate 0.0 0.0 0.0 0 0 1 1) and the simulation runs well. However the particles in the wall group do not move when the multisphere case is run.

Does the "fix move" command apply to multisphere particles, or is there a more suitable alternative?

Thanks,

Daniel
