aoa

particle are not mixing like discrete . they move like chunk and do not mix properly ... i m uploading my input file plz help me because i have to submit my work this week. i m uploading a pics and code

Using variable with fix ave/spatial

Submitted by vinaym on Mon, 09/25/2017 - 16:07

Hello,

I want to determine average of velocity square < (Vx^2) > and later average it in a band at different heights in the domain.
I tried to do so in the following way using variable and fix ave/spatial command.

variable gvx equal vx*vx
variable gvy equal vy*vy
variable gvz equal vz*vz
fix gvel all ave/spatial 1 1000 1000 z lower 0.01 v_gvx v_gvy v_gvz file meanv.txt

Fix insert/pack

Submitted by z3490628 on Mon, 09/25/2017 - 10:24

Hi all,

I have seen the LIGGGHTS v3.x doc about the command 'fix insert/pack'.

For the restriction, it says "The overlapcheck = ‘yes’ option performs an inherently serial operation and will thus not scale well in parallel. For this reason, if you want to generate large systems, you are advised to turn overlapcheck off and let the packing relax afterwards to generate a valid packing.".

What exactly I have to do to let the packing relax afterwards? Thanks.

Regards,
Josh

Set and update quaternions to multisphere

Submitted by keepfit on Wed, 09/20/2017 - 09:09

In Liggghts, can we set an initial quaternion and update it for a multisphere particle, or hybrid sphere molecule clump?
Same as asphere, can we also output the cumulative quaternion (compare to quaternion at time = 0) of each clump/multisphere?
Such that we can not only track the positions (center of mass) but also the degree of rotation of all clumps.

Greetings,
David

Error reading bonds

Submitted by rob1 on Tue, 09/19/2017 - 10:53

Good morning,

I am using a hybrid granular bond/gran model and reading the structure with read_data.
How to solve the error "Incorrect atom format in data file"? The file structure I have is below.

Thank you,
rob1

Set command error

Submitted by kashif saeed on Mon, 09/18/2017 - 17:48

Hi everyone,

I want to use the Set command with multi-sphere simulation but it gives following error.
set region factory property/atom VMoistureMass 7.065e-6

ERROR: Set command may not be used together with fix multisphere (../set.cpp:112)

please help me how to add moisture in case of multisphere instead of using set command.

thanks in advance

Installing LIGGGHTS on mac OS 10.12 (sierra)

Submitted by tjleps on Sat, 09/16/2017 - 21:04

This is a notice for people trying to get LIGGGHTS working on current mac os systems.

The Xcode8 command line tools GCC compiler will not successfully compile the LIGGGHTS source code with the couple most current versions of MPI. It's possible that using older revisions of MPI will work, I haven't attempted that. What will work is installing a more recent version of GCC. I stepped through this guide to making GCC on mac OS:
