LIGGGHTS® - User Forum

Hello all,

I will go straight with the problem, thank you in advance.

I built LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC to my Ubuntu's application on Windows 10 as the documentation states.
After a successful [make auto], I tried to run with [chute_wear] like the documentation says.

This error
$ HYDU_create_process (utils/launch/launch.c : 74) : execvp error on file lmp_auto (Too many levels of symbolic links)
appears after I tried (I have only 1 processor)
$ mpirun -np 1 lmp_auto < in.chute_wear
in the [chute_wear] example directory.

Hi everyone,

I am new to LIGGGHTS software. Does surface mesh size effect the particle flow simulation?? I am doing the simulation for particle flow inside the screw feeder where only surface mesh i generated. what about the volume mesh and how the calculations are occurring??? also please explain the role of neighbor listing.
Thanks in advance

This is my LIGGGHTS file.

Is there a way to add a force and a variable velocity to a group of rigid grains?

Hi everyone,

is there a general guideline on how often to compute and print out thermo dynamic info? For example, how do I decide whether I should use thermo 1000 or thermo 2000?
I'm thinking of something similar to 0.1 ... 0.2 x Rayleigh Time for timesteps.

Thank you for your help,
Michael

I met some problems when making LIGGGHTS on my mac. I tried to change the MAKEFILE.USER in src/MAKE but every time when I type "make auto" in the terminal, error occurs like this:

Makefile:940: *** 'Could not determine suitable appendix of VTK library with VTK_INC="-I/usr/local/liggghts/vtk/include", VTK_LIB="" and VTK_APPENDIX="-VTK_MAJOR_VERSION.VTK_MINOR_VERSION"'. Stop.
make: *** [auto] Error 2

Hello to everybody,
since I have developed particular interest in the subject of Cohesive energy density and the appropriate values for this parameter, I would like to ask if anybody could share some papers, experience, anything that could help about Ced.
Thanks,
greetings.

hello everyone,

I am using CFDE to simulate the combustion process of particles. I wish the particlesl shrink after heating to 350 degrees and disappear after the radius is less than 0.003. I used two ways to solve the problem, but both got ERRORS.
