Error using different atom style and mpirun error

Submitted by mschramm on Wed, 12/16/2015 - 17:59

Hello,
I am receiving the following error when running the hopper drain example from the website.

mschramm@da200b-04 ~/Documents/liggghts/examples/LIGGGHTS/Tutorials_public/Bin_Sim
$ Liggghts<HopDrain_Bonds.txt
LIGGGHTS (Version LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC 3.3.0, compiled 2015-12-11-19:39:06 by mschramm, git commit 9b1fc57b77c483deaf2c0a6c69241c5d4f91e3c2 based on LAMMPS 23 Nov 2013)
ERROR: Invalid atom style (../atom.cpp:432)

I have been able to run the example using atom_style sphere but I now want to add a bond between two particles.

How to output mesh data (stress etc.) in the form of like particles?

Submitted by junelaue on Tue, 12/15/2015 - 14:09

I use the following command to output mesh data:
"dump dumpmesh all mesh/vtk 1000 post/dump*.vtk id stresscomponents mysurface";
I konw that VTK is good for paraview. But the data in VTK is not easy to use for quantitative analysis.
for granulars, I can output particles data using the following command, and it is easy to do post process for quantitative analysis.
"dump dmp all custom 1000 post/dump*.particles id type x y z vx vy vz fx fy fz";

Not a Number (nan) error with heat/gran

Hi all!

I have encountered the following problem with the energy equation in my simulation:

I am running the simulation with a constant particle temperature (for testing purposes). At a certain point, I get some "Not a Number" (nan) errors. The simulation goes on smoothly because the governing equations of movement are not affacted, it's just not possible to postprocess the temperature and heat transfer of the particles because the arrays are corrupted.

The thermo output looks like that when the error occurs:

Installing Voro++ package

Submitted by Joel Martis on Wed, 12/09/2015 - 15:30

Hi all.

I'm trying to install the voro++ package in order to enable computation of voronoi volumes of particles. However, the link for the source code provided on the LIGGGHTS documentation page seems to be broken (http://math.lbl.gov/voro++/download). Please tell me where I can find the source code.

Thanks.

Particles passing throug wall --> When rotating wall is close to stationary wall

Submitted by tuks123 on Wed, 12/09/2015 - 15:00

Hi,

I am facing problem of particles passing through wall. I am simulating case where, particles are rotated in a container using rotating impeller. This impeller (rotating wall) is very close (5mm) to the stationary wall of container. There are two types are particles (with 1.5mm diameter and with 7mm).

When impeller is rotated, particles pass through wall. Smaller particles escape through wall more than larger particles.

fix move INTEGRATION

Submitted by rob1 on Fri, 12/04/2015 - 17:49

Hello everybody,

I am inserting some atoms in a mesh/tet region and then fixing the body as rigid.
I would like to move this rigid body but, when using fix move, I get the warning:
"One or more atoms are time integrated more than once"
that gives unexpected results on the outputs I am calculating (e.g. forces on a mesh).

fix motion bottom_atoms move linear 0.01 0.0 0.0
