</P>
|
|
<P>Styles <I>lubricate</I> and <I>lubricate/poly</I> compute hydrodynamic
|
|
interactions between mono-disperse spherical particles in a pairwise
|
|
fashion. The interactions have 2 components. The first is
|
|
Ball-Melrose lubrication terms via the formulas in <A HREF = "#Ball">(Ball and
|
|
Melrose)</A>
|
|
</P>
|
|
<CENTER><IMG SRC = "Eqs/pair_lubricate.jpg">

|
|
<P>which represents the dissipation W between two nearby particles due to
|
|
their relative velocities in the presence of a background solvent with
|
|
viscosity <I>mu</I>. Note that this is dynamic viscosity which has units of
|
|
mass/distance/time, not kinematic viscosity.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The Asq (squeeze) term is the strongest and is included if <I>flagHI</I> is
|
|
set to 1 (default). It scales as 1/gap where gap is the separation
|
|
between the surfaces of the 2 particles. The Ash (shear) and Apu
|
|
(pump) terms are only included if <I>flaglog</I> is set to 1. They are the
|
|
next strongest interactions, and the only other singular interaction,
|
|
and scale as log(gap). Note that <I>flaglog</I> = 1 and <I>flagHI</I> = 0 is
|
|
invalid, and will result in a warning message, after which <I>flagHI</I> will
|
|
be set to 1. The Atw (twist) term is currently not included. It is
|
|
typically a very small contribution to the lubrication forces.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The <I>flagHI</I> and <I>flagVF</I> settings are optional. Neither should be
|
|
used, or both must be defined.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P><I>Cutinner</I> sets the minimum center-to-center separation that will be
|
|
used in calculations irrespective of the actual separation. <I>Cutoff</I>
|
|
is the maximum center-to-center separation at which an interaction is
|
|
computed. Using a <I>cutoff</I> less than 3 radii is recommended if
|
|
<I>flaglog</I> is set to 1.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The other component is due to the Fast Lubrication Dynamics (FLD)
|
|
approximation, described in <A HREF = "#Kumar">(Kumar)</A>, which can be
|
|
represented by the following equation
|
|
</P>
|
|
<CENTER><IMG SRC = "Eqs/fld.jpg">
|
|
</CENTER>
|
|
<P>where U represents the velocities and angular velocities of the
|
|
particles, U^<I>infty</I> represents the velocity and the angular velocity
|
|
of the undisturbed fluid, and E^<I>infty</I> represents the rate of strain
|
|
tensor of the undisturbed fluid with viscosity <I>mu</I>. Again, note that
|
|
this is dynamic viscosity which has units of mass/distance/time, not
|
|
kinematic viscosity. Volume fraction corrections to R_FU are included
|
|
as long as <I>flagVF</I> is set to 1 (default).
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: When using the FLD terms, these pair styles are
|
|
designed to be used with explicit time integration and a
|
|
correspondingly small timestep. Thus either <A HREF = "fix_nve_sphere.html">fix
|
|
nve/sphere</A> or <A HREF = "fix_nve_asphere.html">fix
|
|
nve/asphere</A> should be used for time integration.
|
|
To perform implicit FLD, see the <A HREF = "pair_lubricateU.html">pair_style
|
|
lubricateU</A> command.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Style <I>lubricate</I> requires monodisperse spherical particles; style
|
|
<I>lubricate/poly</I> allows for polydisperse spherical particles.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The viscosity <I>mu</I> can be varied in a time-dependent manner over the
|
|
course of a simluation, in which case in which case the pair_style
|
|
setting for <I>mu</I> will be overridden. See the <A HREF = "fix_adapt.html">fix adapt</A>
|
|
command for details.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>If the suspension is sheared via the <A HREF = "fix_deform.html">fix deform</A>
|
|
command then the pair style uses the shear rate to adjust the
|
|
hydrodynamic interactions accordingly. Volume changes due to fix
|
|
deform are accounted for when computing the volume fraction
|
|
corrections to R_FU.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>When computing the volume fraction corrections to R_FU, the presence
|
|
of walls (whether moving or stationary) will affect the volume
|
|
fraction available to colloidal particles. This is currently accounted
|
|
for with the following types of walls: <A HREF = "fix_wall.html">wall/lj93</A>,
|
|
<A HREF = "fix_wall.html">wall/lj126</A>, <A HREF = "fix_wall.html">wall/colloid</A>, and
|
|
<A HREF = "fix_wall.html">wall/harmonic</A>. For these wall styles, the correct
|
|
volume fraction will be used when walls do not coincide with the box
|
|
boundary, as well as when walls move and thereby cause a change in the
|
|
volume fraction. Other wall styles will still work, but they will
|
|
result in the volume fraction being computed based on the box
|
|
boundaries.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Since lubrication forces are dissipative, it is usually desirable to
|
|
thermostat the system at a constant temperature. If Brownian motion
|
|
(at a constant temperature) is desired, it can be set using the
|
|
<A HREF = "pair_brownian.html">pair_style brownian</A> command. These pair styles
|
|
and the brownian style should use consistent parameters for <I>mu</I>,
|
|
<I>flaglog</I>, <I>flagfld</I>, <I>cutinner</I>, <I>cutoff</I>, <I>flagHI</I> and <I>flagVF</I>.

<P>Styles with a <I>cuda</I>, <I>gpu</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">this section</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-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>

by including their suffix, or you can use the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_7">-suffix command-line
