Hi Everybody

I wanted to set the friction to different values, depending on where the particle is in the model, e.g. in a hopper, and in the process below the hopper.

My approach was to:
- define a region, REG_hopper
- associate a group of particles with this region
- set the friction first for "all", and then for the group using "fix property/global"

The steps below shows only the applicable commands:
region REG_hopper block x_lo x_hi ... z_lo z_hi units box
...
group GRP_hopper region REG_hopper
...

Hello everyone,

As it is my first question of the year 2011, I take this opportunity to wish all LIGGGHTS' users a Happy New Year.

About my question, I would like to know if it exists a Pizza's function to export the data from the custom dump to txt files ?

Each line of txt file will be the numerical data dumped for one atom. I need these txt files to perform posttreatment with Matlab.

Regards
JF

Dear Christoph,

There's a bug (Illegal if command) in early version of lammps, and it has been fixed in current lammps. However, the bug is still in liggghts. I used the patch file to liggghts that applied in lammps and it didn't work.

So could you help me to fix this? The patch file of lammps has been attached.

Many thanks!

Best,
Tong

Hi Christoph,
I am looking for further information about your force models in LIGGGHTS. Is there some special literature you used for development of the force models?
Happy new year and best regards, Josef

Hello Christoph.
I was playing around with liggghts and I tried to first:
fix container all mesh/gran silo.stl 1 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0
fix container_wall all wall/gran/hertz/history 1 0 mesh/gran 1 container

Then after some running steps I tried to:

unfix container_wall
run 1000
But I have a segmentation fault in the first iteration of the run 1000 command.
I've debugged a bit, and found that the fix is deleted, but when running the deleted fix is invoked again in Verlet::run()
if (n_pre_force) modify->pre_force(vflag);

Hi,
I want to pour two different diameters particles in simulation box, I used following script but couldn't put different diameters but just single, print-out is also given below:

Hi !
Is this possible in liggghts to create the sound waves frequency and propagate it through granular media ?

Hi,
The new LIGGGHTS 1.2.3 beta doesn't write restart file, may be there is bug.
Thanks,

Hi,
I want to create 2D layer of beads. fix pour only works in 3D while lattice is not working with 2D. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ram

i download the new version and followed the same steps to install it as i followed for the last versions. It was installed successfully and did not give any error in the end.The message in the end is as

"size ../lmp_fedora

But when i write the command " lmp_fedora" it gives

bash: lmp_fedora: command not found

Or when i execute any input file it gives
