Multiple cores across periodic dimension crashes with multisphere

Submitted by estefan31 on Sat, 05/06/2017 - 03:22

I'm noticing that the code crashes pretty early in a simulation if I have multiple cores across a dimension having periodic boundary conditions. Is this a known issue and does anyone have an idea why this tends to happen? It seems that this only occurs with multisphere particles but not with regular spheres.

Shear Cell example fails in 3.6

Submitted by Jagirhussan on Fri, 05/05/2017 - 13:24

Greetings,
I tried to run the shear cell example on a 3.6.0 build. Unfortunately, I am getting the following error. I would be extremely grateful if you could help me out with this.

Import and parallelization of mesh cad2 containing 720 triangle(s) successful
ERROR on proc 0: assertion failed (../region_neighbor_list_I.h:156)

I have listed the echo output below.

Understanding the fix nve and fix box/relax and energy minimizing

Submitted by lumblab227 on Wed, 05/03/2017 - 06:09

Hello everyone!

After some struggling with the primary tutorial, I am now trying to build up my own model. Currently, I am confused about two points and any relevant discussion with you will be very helping.

(i) fix nve + relax pressure = fix npt? Is it a correct understanding?

(ii) If I want to calm down of the whole particle assembly (e.g. the kinetic energy as low as possible), what kind of things I can do to achieve this while keep it under acceptable computation time?

KInd regards,
lumb

region tet/mesh command

Submitted by alvriver on Wed, 04/26/2017 - 15:11

Hi!

I trying to use a particular STL volume like a particle generation region using the command "tet/mesh", but I'm having problems. The "tet/mesh" command ask me to use a "ASCII VTK file", so, I'm using PV to convert my STL volume to the VTK file, but this apparently doesn't works.

region bc mesh/tet file meshes/EmisorVTK2.vtk scale 0.001 side in units box

When I compile this, the program tell me:

How to get mass of particles in specific region ???

Submitted by neven.marticnevic on Tue, 04/25/2017 - 19:28

Hello everyone,

I am doing simulation of roller compactor. I want to calculate density of material which flow throw screw augers. For this I need a mass of particles, which are in defined region at different time steps. So I am wondering which command can give me a mass of particles in defined region for example every 10 000 time steps???

You can find picture in attachment. Picture is showing in which region I want to know mass of particles.

Best regards Neven.

colloid package

Submitted by zhenglin on Mon, 04/24/2017 - 17:12

Hi, I want to built a colloid model in liggghts. I didnt know how to do , so i use folloing way:
1. copy package COLLOID from lammps, but when i use command "cfdemCompLIG"or "make fedora", it has a lot error
2.i try to use the file in lib/gpu, but you guys say it is not suitable for ligghts
3.if i could use python?
so, can you tell me how to built colloid?
