compute voronoi/atom command :h3
|
|
|
|
[Syntax:]
|
|
|
|
compute ID group-ID voronoi/atom :pre
|
|
|
|
ID, group-ID are documented in "compute"_compute.html command
|
|
voronoi/atom = style name of this compute command :ul
|
|
|
|
[Examples:]
|
|
|
|
compute 1 all voronoi/atom :pre
|
|
|
|
[Description:]
|
|
|
|
Define a computation that calculates the Voronoi tesselation of the
|
|
atoms in the simulation box. The tesselation is calculated using
|
|
all atoms in the simulatoin, but non-zero values are only stored
|
|
for atoms in the group.
|
|
|
|
Two quantites per atom are calculated by this compute. The first is
|
|
the volume of the Voronoi cell around each atom, which is the volume
|
|
of points in space closest to that atom. The second is the number of
|
|
faces of the Voronoi cell, which is also the number of nearest
|
|
neighbor atoms.
|
|
|
|
The Voronoi calculation is performed by the freely available "Voro++
|
|
package"_voronoi, written by Chris Rycroft at UC Berkeley and LBL,
|
|
which must be installed on your system when building LAMMPS for use
|
|
with this compute. See instructions on obtaining and installing
|
|
the Voro++ software in the src/VORONOI/README file.

|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: The calculation of Voronoi volumes is performed by
|
|
each processor for the atoms it owns, and includes the effect of ghost
|
|
atoms stored by the processor. This assumes that the Voronoi cells of
|
|
owned atoms are not affected by atoms beyond the ghost atom cut-off
|
|
distance. This is usually a good assumption for liquid and solid
|
|
systems, but may lead to underestimation of Voronoi volumes in low
|
|
density systems. By default, the set of ghost atoms stored by each
|
|
processor is determined by the cutoff used for
|
|
"pair_style"_pair_style.html interactions. The cutoff can be set
|
|
explicitly via the "communicate cutoff"_communicate.html command.
|
|
|
|
[Output info:]
|
|
|
|
This compute calculates a per-atom array with 2 columns. The first
|
|
column is the Voronoi volume, the second is the neighbor count, as
|
|
described above. These values can be accessed by any command that
|
|
uses per-atom values from a compute as input. See "Section_howto
|
|
15"_Section_howto.html#howto_15 for an overview of LAMMPS output
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
The Voronoi cell volume will be in distance "units"_units.html cubed.
|
|
|
|
[Restrictions:]
|
|
|
|
This compute is part of the VORONOI package. It is only enabled if
|
|
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the "Making
|
|
LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#start_3 section for more info.
|
|
|
|
This command currently only works for 3d systems.
