<P>Create a computation that will be performed on a group of atoms.

</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>In LAMMPS, a "compute" is used in several ways. Computes that
|
|
|
|
|
calculate one or more values for the entire group of atoms can output
|
2007-02-21 08:18:01 +08:00
|
|
|
those values via the <A HREF = "thermo_style.html">thermo_style custom</A> or <A HREF = "fix_ave_time.html">fix
|
|
|
|
|
ave/time</A> command. Or the values can be referenced
|
|
|
|
|
in a <A HREF = "variable.html">variable equal</A> command. Computes that calculate
|
|
|
|
|
a temperature or pressure are used by fixes that do thermostatting or
|
|
|
|
|
barostatting and when atom velocities are created. Computes that
|
|
|
|
|
calculate one or more values for each atom in the group can output
|
|
|
|
|
those values via the <A HREF = "dump.html">dump custom</A> command or the <A HREF = "fix_ave_spatial.html">fix
|
|
|
|
|
ave/spatial</A> command.

|
|
|
<P>LAMMPS creates its own computes for thermodynamic output. Two
|
|
|
|
|
computes are always created, named "thermo_temp" and
|
|
|
|
|
"thermo_pressure", as if these commands had been invoked:
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<PRE>compute thermo_temp all temp
|
|
|
|
|
compute thermo_pressure all pressure thermo_temp
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Additional computes are created if the thermo style requires it. See
|
|
|
|
|
the documentation for the <A HREF = "thermo_style.html">thermo_style</A> command.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The dumping of atom snapshots and fixes that compute temperature or
|
|
|
|
|
pressure also create computes as required. These are discussed in the
|
|
|
|
|
documentation for the <A HREF = "dump.html">dump custom</A> and specific
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "fix.html">fix</A> commands.
|
2007-02-10 05:40:32 +08:00
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>In all these cases, the default computes can be replaced by computes
|
|
|
|
|
defined in the input script, as described by the
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "thermo_modify.html">thermo_modify</A> and <A HREF = "fix_modify.html">fix modify</A>
|
2007-06-20 20:56:17 +08:00
|
|
|
commands.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Properties of either a default of user-defined compute can be modified
|
|
|
|
|
via the <A HREF = "compute_modify.html">compute_modify</A> command.
|

</P>

2007-06-20 20:56:17 +08:00

<P>Computes can be deleted with the <A HREF = "uncompute.html">uncompute</A> command.

|
|
|
</P>
|
2007-06-20 20:56:17 +08:00
|
|
|
<P>Code for new computes can be added to LAMMPS (see <A HREF = "Section_modify.html">this
|
|
|
|
|
section</A> of the manaul) and the results of their
|
|
|
|
|
calculations accessed in the various ways described above.

<P>Each compute style has its own doc page which describes its arguments

and what it does. Here is an alphabetic list of compute styles
