|
<P>Set the timestep counter to the specified value. This command
|
|
|
|
|
normally comes after the timestep has been set by reading it in from a
|
|
|
|
|
file or a previous simulation advanced the timestep.
|

|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The <A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> and <A HREF = "create_box.html">create_box</A>
|
|
|
|
|
commands set the timestep to 0; the <A HREF = "read_restart.html">read_restart</A>
|
|
|
|
|
command sets the timestep to the value it had when the restart file
|
|
|
|
|
was written.

|
<P>This command cannot be used when a dump file is defined via the
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "dump.html">dump</A> command and has already been written to. It also
|
|
|
|
|
cannot be used when a <A HREF = "restart.html">restart frequency</A> has been set,
|
|
|
|
|
and a restart file has already been written. This is because the
|
|
|
|
|
changed timestep can mess up the planned timestep for the next file
|
|
|
|
|
write. See the <A HREF = "undump.html">undump</A> command or <A HREF = "restart.html">restart
|
|
|
|
|
0</A> command for info on how to turn off these definitions
|
|
|
|
|
if necessary. New specifications for dump and restart files can be
|
|
|
|
|
given after the reset_timestep command is used.

|
|
|
<P>This command cannot be used when any fixes are defined that keep track
|
|
|
|
|
of time or the timestep in order to perform time-dependent operations.
|
|
|
|
|
Examples include the "ave" or "wall" fixes such as <A HREF = "fix_ave_spatial.html">fix
|
|
|
|
|
ave/spatial</A> or <A HREF = "fix_wall_lj126.html">fix
|
|
|
|
|
wall/lj126</A>, and also <A HREF = "fix_indent.html">fix
|
|
|
|
|
indent</A>. The wall and indeter fixes allow for a
|
|
|
|
|
velocity or other time-dependent parameter to be specified, which
|
|
|
|
|
would be messed up by resetting the timestep.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Restting the timestep will clear the flags for <A HREF = "compute.html">computes</A>
|
|
|
|
|
that may have calculated some quantity from a previous run. This
|
|
|
|
|
means that quantity cannot be accessed by a variable in between runs
|
|
|
|
|
until a new run is performed. See the <A HREF = "variable.html">variable</A>
|
|
|
|
|
command for more details.
