Bond Model liggghts

Submitted by bprasad on Thu, 11/10/2016 - 10:40

Hallo Liggghts experts,

i am trying to simulate Nanoindentation and for such kind of simulation i need to use bond model. As i m very new in this field, i m facing lot of difficulty to start with scratch. I was wondering if any one can provide me an example script of bond model. That will be a great help for me.

Thanks for your support.

Thanking You

Installation of Pacakage

Submitted by bprasad on Sat, 11/05/2016 - 16:17

Hallo LIGGGHTS Experts,

i am very new to this software and also very new in the field of particle simulation. I am planing to do the Nanoindentation simulation through LIGGGHTS. Therefore i need to create a bond model, which is only possible through the MOLECULE package.

I have tried to install this package but it is showing some error. I have tried to do it in two steps, as mentioned in LIGGGHTS online document.

Step 1: type make yes-molecule (from src directory)
Terminal gave back the following statement:

Solidworks Mesh

Submitted by srguya on Fri, 10/21/2016 - 08:46

Hi

I am a new liggghts user. I am having challenges with importing Solidworks generated mesh into liggghts. I have done some tutorials using the supplied mesh and even changed the input file using the supplied mesh and everything was running fine. Now when i create my own mesh in solidworks, it is not working. I generate my mesh as follows:
1. Draw solid model in solidworks
2. Save the model as stl
3. Import the stl file into liggghts

My other question is how do I know if my mesh is within the defined computational domain in liggghts.

ERROR: Invalid compute style (../modify.cpp:982)

Submitted by amingheibi on Mon, 10/17/2016 - 18:22

Dear all.
I am new to LIGGGHTS and I want to run a code for a set of granular materials under compaction.
in compute section I have used the ''compute 7 all voronoi/atom'' and when I run the code I receive the error: invalid compute style (../modify.cpp:982).
I know that the error is for the "compute 7 all voonoi/atom". I think I have used the correct syntax for VORONOI compute, but still I get the error. Does any body know how can I solve this problem?
Compute section of my code is as follows:

Problem with mesh/tet region - custom vtk file

Submitted by zealakis on Sat, 10/15/2016 - 23:00

Hi!,

I am inserting atoms in a specific region using the region mesh / tet command. Now i insert the particles in two different places defined in the same VTK file. When I define two or more separate locations from each other to insert atoms, I must reduce the quality of the mesh to avoid problems like 'you have 6 neighs, but 5 expected'. If I want to generate several mini-regions, I have to make a very poor meshing and the figures lose their original form. How i could solve this problem ?, I can't use "heal auto_remove_duplicates" because it only works in 'fix mesh/surface'
