<P><B>Description:</B>

|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>Define a computation that calculates (or simply stores) one or more
|
||
|
attributes for each atom in a group. This is useful for input to the
|
||
|
<A HREF = "fix_ave_spatial.html">fix ave/spatial</A> command to do spatial averaging
|
||
|
by layers or to the <A HREF = "fix_ave_atom.html">fix ave/atom</A> command to
|
||
|
perform time-averaging of per-atom quantities. The attribute values
|
||
|
can also be output directly by the <A HREF = "dump.html">dump custom</A> command,
|
||
|
but it has keywords that output these quantities without the need to
|
||
|
define an additional compute.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>The styles <I>x</I>, <I>y</I>, <I>z</I>, <I>xu</I>, <I>yu</I>, <I>zu</I>, <I>vx</I>, <I>vy</I>, <I>vz</I>, <I>fx</I>,
|
||
|
<I>fy</I>, and <I>fz</I> each store a single scalar value per atom.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>The <I>x</I>, <I>y</I>, <I>z</I> keywords store atom coordinate in the appropriate
|
||
|
distance <A HREF = "units.html">units</A> (Angstroms, sigma, etc) and will always be
|
||
|
inside (or slightly outside) the simulation box. Use <I>xu</I>, <I>yu</I>, <I>zu</I>
|
||
|
if you want the coordinates "unwrapped" by the image flags for each
|
||
|
atom. Unwrapped means that if the atom has passed thru a periodic
|
||
|
boundary one or more times, the value is printed for what the
|
||
|
coordinate would be if it had not been wrapped back into the periodic
|
||
|
box. Note that using <I>xu</I>, <I>yu</I>, <I>zu</I> means that the coordinate
|
||
|
values may be far outside the simulation box.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>Note that if you want to compute the time-averaged position of an atom
|
||
|
coordinate that could pass thru a periodic boundary (e.g. via the <A HREF = "fix_ave_atom.html">fix
|
||
|
ave/atom</A> command), you probably want to use <I>xu</I>
|
||
|
instead of <I>x</I>.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>The styles <I>xyz</I>, <I>v</I>, and <I>f</I> each store a vector of 3 quantities per
|
||
|
atom.
|
||
|
</P>
|
||
|
<P>Note that the various commands that reference this compute use a
|
||
|
different syntax for accessing scalar versus vector values, e.g. c_ID
|
||
|
versus c_ID<B>2</B>.
