<h2>Description</h2>
|
|
<p>This command is used with variables defined by the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><span class="doc">variable</span></a> command. It assigns the next value to the
|
|
variable from the list of values defined for that variable by the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><span class="doc">variable</span></a> command. Thus when that variable is
|
|
subsequently substituted for in an input script command, the new value
|
|
is used.</p>
|
|
<p>See the <a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><span class="doc">variable</span></a> command for info on how to define and
|
|
use different kinds of variables in LAMMPS input scripts. If a
|
|
variable name is a single lower-case character from “a” to “z”, it can
|
|
be used in an input script command as $a or $z. If it is multiple
|
|
letters, it can be used as ${myTemp}.</p>
|
|
<p>If multiple variables are used as arguments to the <em>next</em> command,
|
|
then all must be of the same variable style: <em>index</em>, <em>loop</em>, <em>file</em>,
|
|
<em>universe</em>, or <em>uloop</em>. An exception is that <em>universe</em>- and
|
|
<em>uloop</em>-style variables can be mixed in the same <em>next</em> command.</p>
|
|
<p>All the variables specified with the next command are incremented by
|
|
one value from their respective list of values. A <em>file</em>-style
|
|
variable reads the next line from its associated file. An
|
|
<em>atomfile</em>-style variable reads the next set of lines (one per atom)
|
|
from its associated file. <em>String-</em> or <em>atom</em>- or <em>equal</em>- or
|
|
<em>world</em>-style variables cannot be used with the the next command,
|
|
since they only store a single value.</p>
|
|
<p>When any of the variables in the next command has no more values, a
|
|
flag is set that causes the input script to skip the next
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="jump.html"><span class="doc">jump</span></a> command encountered. This enables a loop containing
|
|
a next command to exit. As explained in the <a class="reference internal" href="variable.html"><span class="doc">variable</span></a>
|
|
command, the variable that has exhausted its values is also deleted.
|
|
This allows it to be used and re-defined later in the input script.
|
|
<em>File</em>-style and <em>atomfile</em>-style variables are exhausted when the
|
|
end-of-file is reached.</p>
|
|
<p>When the next command is used with <em>index</em>- or <em>loop</em>-style variables,
|
|
the next value is assigned to the variable for all processors. When
|
|
the next command is used with <em>file</em>-style variables, the next line is
|
|
read from its file and the string assigned to the variable. When the
|
|
next command is used with <em>atomfile</em>-style variables, the next set of
|
|
per-atom values is read from its file and assigned to the variable.</p>
|
|
<p>When the next command is used with <em>universe</em>- or <em>uloop</em>-style
|
|
variables, all <em>universe</em>- or <em>uloop</em>-style variables must be listed
|
|
in the next command. This is because of the manner in which the
|
|
incrementing is done, using a single lock file for all variables. The
|
|
next value (for each variable) is assigned to whichever processor
|
|
partition executes the command first. All processors in the partition
|
|
are assigned the same value(s). Running LAMMPS on multiple partitions
|
|
of processors via the “-partition” command-line switch is described in
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="Section_start.html#start-7"><span class="std std-ref">this section</span></a> of the manual. <em>Universe</em>-
|
|
and <em>uloop</em>-style variables are incremented using the files
|
|
“tmp.lammps.variable” and “tmp.lammps.variable.lock” which you will
|
|
see in your directory during and after such a LAMMPS run.</p>
|
|
<p>Here is an example of running a series of simulations using the next
|
|
command with an <em>index</em>-style variable. If this input script is named
|
|
in.polymer, 8 simulations would be run using data files from
|
|
directories run1 thru run8.</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>variable d index run1 run2 run3 run4 run5 run6 run7 run8
|
|
shell cd $d
|
|
read_data data.polymer
|
|
run 10000
|
|
shell cd ..
|
|
clear
|
|
next d
|
|
jump in.polymer
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>If the variable “d” were of style <em>universe</em>, and the same in.polymer
|
|
input script were run on 3 partitions of processors, then the first 3
|
|
simulations would begin, one on each set of processors. Whichever
|
|
partition finished first, it would assign variable “d” the 4th value
|
|
and run another simulation, and so forth until all 8 simulations were
|
|
finished.</p>
|
|
<p>Jump and next commands can also be nested to enable multi-level loops.
|
|
For example, this script will run 15 simulations in a double loop.</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>variable i loop 3
|
|
variable j loop 5
|
|
clear
|
|
...
|
|
read_data data.polymer.$i$j
|
|
print Running simulation $i.$j
|
|
run 10000
|
|
next j
|
|
jump in.script
|
|
next i
|
|
jump in.script
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Here is an example of a double loop which uses the <a class="reference internal" href="if.html"><span class="doc">if</span></a> and
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="jump.html"><span class="doc">jump</span></a> commands to break out of the inner loop when a
|
|
condition is met, then continues iterating thru the outer loop.</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>label loopa
|
|
variable a loop 5
|
|
label loopb
|
|
variable b loop 5
|
|
print "A,B = $a,$b"
|
|
run 10000
|
|
if $b > 2 then "jump in.script break"
|
|
next b
|
|
jump in.script loopb
|
|
label break
|
|
variable b delete
