fix nve/asphere command :h3
[Syntax:]
fix ID group-ID nve/asphere :pre
ID, group-ID are documented in "fix"_fix.html command
nve/asphere = style name of this fix command :ul
[Examples:]
fix 1 all nve/asphere :pre
[Description:]
Perform constant NVE integration to update position, velocity,
orientation, and angular velocity for aspherical particles in the
group each timestep. V is volume; E is energy. This creates a system
trajectory consistent with the microcanonical ensemble.
This fix differs from the "fix nve"_fix_nve.html command, which
assumes point particles and only updates their position and velocity.
[Restart, fix_modify, output, run start/stop, minimize info:]
No information about this fix is written to "binary restart
files"_restart.html. None of the "fix_modify"_fix_modify.html options
are relevant to this fix. No global scalar or vector or per-atom
quantities are stored by this fix for access by various "output
commands"_Section_howto.html#4_15. No parameter of this fix can be
used with the {start/stop} keywords of the "run"_run.html command.
This fix is not invoked during "energy minimization"_minimize.html.
[Restrictions:]
This fix is part of the "asphere" package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the "Making
LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#2_3 section for more info.
This fix requires that atoms store torque and angular momentum and a
quaternion to represent their orientation, as defined by the
"atom_style"_atom_style.html. It also require they store a per-type
"shape"_shape.html. The particles cannot store a per-particle
diameter or per-particle mass.
All particles in the group must be finite-size. They cannot be point
particles, but they can be aspherical or spherical.
