<P>The <I>lj/cubic</I> style computes a truncated LJ interaction potential
|
|
|
|
|
whose energy and force are continuous everywhere. Inside the
|
|
|
|
|
inflection point the interaction is identical to the standard 12/6
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "pair_lj.html">Lennard-Jones</A> potential. The LJ function outside the
|
|
|
|
|
inflection point is replaced with a cubic function of distance. The
|
|
|
|
|
energy, force, and second derivative are continuous at the inflection
|
|
|
|
|
point. The cubic coefficient A3 is chosen so that both energy and
|
|
|
|
|
force go to zero at the cutoff distance. Outside the cutoff distance
|
|
|
|
|
the energy and force are zero.

<P>Styles with a <I>cuda</I>, <I>gpu</I>, <I>intel</I>, <I>kk</I>, <I>omp</I>, or <I>opt</I> suffix are
|
|
|
|
|
functionally the same as the corresponding style without the suffix.
|
|
|
|
|
They have been optimized to run faster, depending on your available
|
|
|
|
|
hardware, as discussed in <A HREF = "Section_accelerate.html">Section_accelerate</A>
|
|
|
|
|
of the manual. The accelerated styles take the same arguments and
|
|
|
|
|
should produce the same results, except for round-off and precision
|
|
|
|
|
issues.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>These accelerated styles are part of the USER-CUDA, GPU, USER-INTEL,
|
|
|
|
|
KOKKOS, USER-OMP and OPT packages, respectively. They are only
|
|
|
|
|
enabled if LAMMPS was built with those packages. See the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_3">Making
|
|
|
|
|
LAMMPS</A> section for more info.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
|
|
|
|
|
by including their suffix, or you can use the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_7">-suffix command-line
|
|
|
|
|
switch</A> when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can
|
|
|
|

use the <A HREF = "suffix.html">suffix</A> command in your input script.

<P>See <A HREF = "Section_accelerate.html">Section_accelerate</A> of the manual for

more instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

<P>For atom type pairs I,J and I != J, the epsilon and sigma coefficients
|

and cutoff distance for all of the lj/cut pair styles can be mixed.

<A HREF = "pair_modify.html">pair_modify</A> shift option,

since pair interaction is already smoothed to 0.0 at the

cutoff.

</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The <A HREF = "pair_modify.html">pair_modify</A> table option is not relevant

|
|
|
for this pair style.
|

<P>The lj/cubic pair style does not support the

<A HREF = "pair_modify.html">pair_modify</A> tail option for adding long-range tail
|

corrections to energy and pressure, since there are no corrections for

a potential that goes to 0.0 at the cutoff.

|

|
<P>The lj/cubic pair style writes its information to <A HREF = "restart.html">binary

|
|
|
|
|
not need to be specified in an input script that reads a restart file.
|
|

</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The lj/cubic pair style can only be used via the <I>pair</I>
|
|
|

|
keyword of the <A HREF = "run_style.html">run_style respa</A> command. It does not

support the <I>inner</I>, <I>middle</I>, <I>outer</I> keywords.
