[Description:]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Apply an additional external force to a group of atoms in such a way
|
|
|
|
|
that every atom experiences the same force. This is useful for
|
|
|
|
|
pushing on wall or boundary atoms so that the structure of the wall
|
|
|
|
|
does not change over time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The existing force is averaged for the group of atoms, component by
|
|
|
|
|
component. The actual force on each atom is then set to the average
|
|
|
|
|
value plus the component specified in this command. This means each
|
|
|
|
|
atom in the group receives the same force.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If any of the arguments is specified as NULL then the forces in that
|
|
|
|
|
dimension are not changed. Note that this is not the same as
|
|
|
|
|
specifying a 0.0 value, since that sets all forces to the same average
|
|
|
|
|
value without adding in any additional force.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
If the {region} keyword is used, the atom must also be in the
|
|
|
|
|
specified geometric "region"_region.html in order to have force added
|
|
|
|
|
to it.

No information about this fix is written to "binary restart
|
|
|
|
|
files"_restart.html. None of the "fix_modify"_fix_modify.html options
|
2008-03-18 04:49:34 +08:00

|
|
are relevant to this fix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This fix computes a 3-vector of forces, which can be accessed by
|
|
|
|
|
various "output commands"_Section_howto.html#4_15. This is the total
|
|
|
|
|
force on the group of atoms before the forces on individual atoms are
|
|
|
|
|
changed by the fix. The vector values calculated by this fix are
|
|
|
|
|
"extensive", meaning they scale with the number of atoms in the
|
|
|
|
|
simulation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No parameter of this fix can be used with the {start/stop} keywords of
|
|
|
|
|
the "run"_run.html command.

|
The forces due to this fix are imposed during an energy minimization,
|
|
|
|
|
invoked by the "minimize"_minimize.html command.
