Group ID error

Submitted by Pankhi Singh on Thu, 08/20/2020 - 14:51

I recently installed LIGGGHTS on Ubuntu and run the example simulation.Then i wanted to run my own simulation so i created the 3D model and wrote the script using the LIGGGHTS official Documentation but when i am running it it is giving me a error:

"ERROR:Could not find fix group ID(../modify.cpp:782)"

My script is:-

# Preliminaries
units si
atom_style sphere
atom_modify map array
boundary f f f
newton off
communicate single vel yes
#processors 2 2 3

simulation of wet powder

Submitted by TakaTo on Wed, 08/19/2020 - 06:31

Hello,

I am trying to simulate a wet powder and calculate the friction between the substrate and the powder.

I'm trying to calculate the friction force from the spring force.
This is a simple model.
Spring the substrate and the block together and move the block. This creates friction between the block and the powder. This is calculated as the spring force equals the friction.

Now the "fix insert/pack" command doesn't work for creating particles.

I've posted the file and would like your advice.

MPI ERROR

I am trying in install liggghts on ubuntu and i have done half of the processes but i am stuck at the "make auto" command when i type make auto i am getting this error

Correct use of Hertz Contact model

Submitted by Gulniamat on Wed, 08/12/2020 - 19:30

Hello every one...
i used Hertz contact model in my simulations in following form:
F=(Kn δn- γn Vn ) + (Kt δt- γt Vt )
The first term represents the normal force between two particles while the second term represents the tangential force. Here Vn and Vt are normal and tangential components of the relative velocity. The coefficients K_n, K_t, γ_n, and γ_t are calculated from the material properties.
