<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>This fix creates atoms on a lattice, appended on the zhi edge of the
|
|
system box. This can be useful when a shock or wave is propagating
|
|
from zlo. This allows the system to grow with time to accommodate an
|
|
expanding wave. A simulation box must already exist, which is
|
|
typically created via the <a class="reference internal" href="create_box.html"><em>create_box</em></a> command.
|
|
Before using this command, a lattice must also be defined using the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="lattice.html"><em>lattice</em></a> command.</p>
|
|
<p>This fix will automatically freeze atoms on the zhi edge of the
|
|
system, so that overlaps are avoided when new atoms are appended.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>basis</em> keyword specifies an atom type that will be assigned to
|
|
specific basis atoms as they are created. See the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="lattice.html"><em>lattice</em></a> command for specifics on how basis atoms are
|
|
defined for the unit cell of the lattice. By default, all created
|
|
atoms are assigned type = 1 unless this keyword specifies differently.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>size</em> keyword defines the size in z of the chunk of material to
|
|
be added.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>random</em> keyword will give the atoms random displacements around
|
|
their lattice points to simulate some initial temperature.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>temp</em> keyword will cause a region to be thermostated with a
|
|
Langevin thermostat on the zhi boundary. The size of the region is
|
|
measured from zhi and is set with the <em>extent</em> argument.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>units</em> keyword determines the meaning of the distance units used
|
|
to define a wall position, but only when a numeric constant is used.
|
|
A <em>box</em> value selects standard distance units as defined by the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="units.html"><em>units</em></a> command, e.g. Angstroms for units = real or metal.
|
|
A <em>lattice</em> value means the distance units are in lattice spacings.
|
|
The <a class="reference internal" href="lattice.html"><em>lattice</em></a> command must have been previously used to
|
|
define the lattice spacings.</p>

LAMMPS was built with that package. See the <a class="reference internal" href="Section_start.html#start-3"><span>Making LAMMPS</span></a> section for more info.</p>
