5. Example problems :h3
The LAMMPS distribution includes an examples sub-directory with
several sample problems. Each problem is in a sub-directory of its
own. Most are 2d models so that they run quickly, requiring at most a
couple of minutes to run on a desktop machine. Each problem has an
input script (in.*) and produces a log file (log.*) and dump file
(dump.*) when it runs. Some use a data file (data.*) of initial
coordinates as additional input. A few sample log file outputs on
different machines and different numbers of processors are included in
the directories to compare your answers to. E.g. a log file like
log.crack.foo.P means it ran on P processors of machine "foo".
The dump files produced by the example runs can be animated using the
xmovie tool described in the "Additional Tools"_Section_tools.html
section of the LAMMPS documentation. Animations of many of these
examples can be viewed on the Movies section of the "LAMMPS WWW
Site"_lws.
These are the sample problems in the examples sub-directories:
colloid: big colloid particles in a small particle solvent, 2d system
comb: models using the COMB potential
crack: crack propagation in a 2d solid
dipole: point dipolar particles, 2d system
eim: NaCl using the EIM potential
ellipse: ellipsoidal particles in spherical solvent, 2d system
flow: Couette and Poiseuille flow in a 2d channel
friction: frictional contact of spherical asperities between 2d surfaces
indent: spherical indenter into a 2d solid
meam: MEAM test for SiC and shear (same as shear examples)
melt: rapid melt of 3d LJ system
micelle: self-assembly of small lipid-like molecules into 2d bilayers
min: energy minimization of 2d LJ melt
msst: MSST shock dynamics
neb: nudged elastic band (NEB) calculation for barrier finding
nemd: non-equilibrium MD of 2d sheared system
obstacle: flow around two voids in a 2d channel
peptide: dynamics of a small solvated peptide chain (5-mer)
peri: Peridynamic model of cylinder impacted by indenter
pour: pouring of granular particles into a 3d box, then chute flow
prd: parallel replica dynamics of a vacancy diffusion in bulk Si
reax: RDX and TATB models using the ReaxFF
rigid: rigid bodies modeled as independent or coupled
shear: sideways shear applied to 2d solid, with and without a void
srd: stochastic rotation dynamics (SRD) particles as solvent :tb(s=:)
Here is how you might run and visualize one of the sample problems:
cd indent
cp ../../src/lmp_linux . # copy LAMMPS executable to this dir
lmp_linux < in.indent # run the problem :pre
Running the simulation produces the files {dump.indent} and
{log.lammps}. You can visualize the dump file as follows:
../../tools/xmovie/xmovie -scale dump.indent :pre
:line
There is also an ELASTIC directory with an example script for
computing elastic constants, using a zero temperature Si example. See
the in.elastic file for more info.
There is also a USER directory which contains subdirectories of
user-provided examples for user packages. See the README files in
those directories for more info. See the doc/Section_start.html file
for more info about user packages.
