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.

Lees-Edwards Boundary Condition in Liggghts

Submitted by mofazli on Fri, 07/31/2020 - 03:56

Hello everyone,
I just want to know more about the possibility of Lees-Edwards boundary condition implementation. Actually, this BC is a mixture of periodic boundary condition along with the simple shear flow. So how it can be done in liggghts?
Thank you, in advance for your help.

One layer of particles sticks on the surface while discharging from an orrifice

Submitted by Zeynep on Mon, 07/27/2020 - 15:27

Hello,

I am working on discharging particles from a flat bottom hopper with an orifice. But even I keep particle frictions low one layer of particles seems to stick to the wall surface of the hopper. Even if I reduce time step and increase Young's modulus the result is the same.

Can someone please help me about that?

Here is my input script:

atom_style granular
boundary f f f
newton off
atom_modify map array
communicate single vel yes
units si #(meters, seconds, kg)
timestep 0.00001
processors * * *

Bonding model (parallel bond)

Submitted by Soo-Min Ham on Fri, 07/24/2020 - 08:12

Hi,

I'd like to modelling the cement bonds by using parallel bonds which consist of a finite-sized beam between the two particles. I do not know the structure of LIGGGHTS system, so here is the light questions.

#1. Is there any method that I can use the codes provided by someone else in github or somewhere? and non-specialist can do that? I think it is a quite difficult work because I have to change from the source code.
