<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>The <em>meam/sw/spline</em> style computes pairwise interactions for metals
|
|
using a variant of modified embedded-atom method (MEAM) potentials
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="#lenosky"><span>(Lenosky)</span></a> with an additional Stillinger-Weber (SW) term
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="pair_sw.html#stillinger"><span>(Stillinger)</span></a> in the energy. This form of the potential
|
|
was first proposed by Nicklas, Fellinger, and Park
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="#nicklas"><span>(Nicklas)</span></a>. We refer to it as MEAM+SW. The total energy E
|
|
is given by</p>
|
|
<img alt="_images/pair_meam_sw_spline.jpg" class="align-center" src="_images/pair_meam_sw_spline.jpg" />
|
|
<p>where rho_I is the density at atom I, theta_JIK is the angle between
|
|
atoms J, I, and K centered on atom I. The seven functions
|
|
Phi, F, G, U, rho, f, and g are represented by cubic splines.</p>
|
|
<p>The cutoffs and the coefficients for these spline functions are listed
|
|
in a parameter file which is specified by the
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="pair_coeff.html"><em>pair_coeff</em></a> command. Parameter files for different
|
|
elements are included in the “potentials” directory of the LAMMPS
|
|
distribution and have a ”.meam.sw.spline” file suffix. All of these
|
|
files are parameterized in terms of LAMMPS <a class="reference internal" href="units.html"><em>metal units</em></a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Note that unlike for other potentials, cutoffs for spline-based
|
|
MEAM+SW potentials are not set in the pair_style or pair_coeff
|
|
command; they are specified in the potential files themselves.</p>
|
|
<p>Unlike the EAM pair style, which retrieves the atomic mass from the
|
|
potential file, the spline-based MEAM+SW potentials do not include
|
|
mass information; thus you need to use the <a class="reference internal" href="mass.html"><em>mass</em></a> command to
|
|
specify it.</p>
|
|
<p>Only a single pair_coeff command is used with the meam/sw/spline style
|
|
which specifies a potential file with parameters for all needed
|
|
elements. These are mapped to LAMMPS atom types by specifying N
|
|
additional arguments after the filename in the pair_coeff command,
|
|
where N is the number of LAMMPS atom types:</p>
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|
<li>filename</li>
|
|
<li>N element names = mapping of spline-based MEAM+SW elements to atom types</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>See the <a class="reference internal" href="pair_coeff.html"><em>pair_coeff</em></a> doc page for alternate ways
|
|
to specify the path for the potential file.</p>
|
|
<p>As an example, imagine the Ti.meam.sw.spline file has values for Ti.
|
|
If your LAMMPS simulation has 3 atoms types and they are all to be
|
|
treated with this potential, you would use the following pair_coeff
|
|
command:</p>
|
|
<p>pair_coeff * * Ti.meam.sw.spline Ti Ti Ti</p>
|
|
<p>The 1st 2 arguments must be * * so as to span all LAMMPS atom types.
|
|
The three Ti arguments map LAMMPS atom types 1,2,3 to the Ti element
|
|
in the potential file. If a mapping value is specified as NULL, the
|
|
mapping is not performed. This can be used when a <em>meam/sw/spline</em>
|
|
potential is used as part of the hybrid pair style. The NULL values
|
|
are placeholders for atom types that will be used with other
|
|
potentials.</p>

<p class="last">The <em>meam/sw/spline</em> style currently supports only
|
|
single-element MEAM+SW potentials. It may be extended for alloy
|
|
systems in the future.</p>

<p>Example input scripts that use this pair style are provided

|
|
<p><strong>Mixing, shift, table, tail correction, restart, rRESPA info</strong>:</p>
|
|
<p>The pair style does not support multiple element types or mixing.
|
|
It has been designed for pure elements only.</p>
|
|
<p>This pair style does not support the <a class="reference internal" href="pair_modify.html"><em>pair_modify</em></a>
|
|
shift, table, and tail options.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>meam/sw/spline</em> pair style does not write its information to
|
|
<a class="reference internal" href="restart.html"><em>binary restart files</em></a>, since it is stored in an external
|
|
potential parameter file. Thus, you need to re-specify the pair_style
|
|
and pair_coeff commands in an input script that reads a restart file.</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>meam/sw/spline</em> pair style can only be used via the <em>pair</em>
|
|
keyword of the <a class="reference internal" href="run_style.html"><em>run_style respa</em></a> command. They do not
|
|
support the <em>inner</em>, <em>middle</em>, <em>outer</em> keywords.</p>

<p>This pair style is only enabled if LAMMPS was built with the USER-MISC package.
