|

|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Define a computation that calculates the total energy and force
|
|
|
|
|
interaction between two groups of atoms: the compute group and the
|
|
|
|
|
specified group2. The two groups can be the same. The interaction
|
|
|
|
|
energy is defined as the pairwise energy between all pairs of atoms
|
|
|
|
|
where one atom in the pair is in the first group and the other is in
|
|
|
|
|
the second group. Likewise, the interaction force calculated by this
|
|
|
|
|
compute is the force on the compute group atoms due to pairwise
|
|
|
|
|
interactions with atoms in the specified group2.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>The energy and force are calculated by looping over a neighbor list of
|
|
|
|
|
pairwise interactions. Thus it can be inefficient to compute this
|
|
|
|
|
quantity too frequently.

|
|
|
<P>This compute calculates a global scalar (the energy) and a global
|
|
|
|
|
vector of length 3 (force), which can be accessed by indices 1-3.
|
|
|
|
|
These values can be used by any command that uses global scalar or
|
|
|
|
|
vector values from a compute as input. See <A HREF = "Section_howto.html#4_15">this
|
|
|
|
|
section</A> for an overview of LAMMPS output
|
|
|
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Both the scalar and vector values calculated by this compute are
|
|
|
|
|
"extensive", meaning they scale with the number of atoms in the
|
|
|
|
|
simulation.

<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
|

|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
|
<P>Only pairwise interactions, as defined by the
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "pair_style.html">pair_style</A> command, are included in this
|
|
|
|
|
calculation. Bond (angle, dihedral, etc) interactions between atoms
|
|
|
|
|
in the two groups are not included. Long-range interactions due to a
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "kspace_style.html">kspace_style</A> command are also not included. Not
|
|
|
|
|
all pair potentials can be evaluated in a pairwise mode as required by
|
|
|
|
|
this compute. For example, 3-body potentials, such as
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF = "pair_tersoff.html">Tersoff</A> and <A HREF = "pair_sw.html">Stillinger-Weber</A> cannot
|
|
|
|
|
be used. <A HREF = "pair_eam.html">EAM</A> potentials for metals only include the
|
|
|
|
|
pair potential portion of the EAM interaction, not the embedding
|
|
|
|
|
term.
