What can you do with LAMMPS?

What can you do with LAMMPS?

LAMMPS has potentials for solid-state materials (metals, semiconductors) and soft matter (biomolecules, polymers) and coarse-grained or mesoscopic systems. It can be used to model atoms or, more generically, as a parallel particle simulator at the atomic, meso, or continuum scale.

What is LAMMPS stand for?

LAMMPS is a large scale classical molecular dynamics code, and stands for Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator. LAMMPS has potentials for soft materials (biomolecules, polymers), solid-state materials (metals, semiconductors) and coarse-grained or mesoscopic systems.

What is LAMMPS written?

C++
LAMMPS/Programming languages
The current LAMMPS is written in C++. Older versions of LAMMPS were written in F90 (LAMMPS 2001) and F77 (LAMMPS 99). A summary of their features is listed here. The Fortran versions do not have all the features of the C++ version, nor is any further development planned for them, other than bug fixes.

How do you run LAMMPS?

4.4. Running LAMMPS on Windows

  1. Get a command prompt by going to Start->Run… , then typing “cmd”.
  2. Move to the directory where you have your input script, (e.g. by typing: cd “Documents”).
  3. At the command prompt, type “lmp -in in. file”, where in. file is the name of your LAMMPS input script.

How do I convert PDB to Lammps data?

To convert the AA PDB file to LAMMPS input file, we use CG-it. CG-it requires the parameter and topology files in json format….AA PDB file → LAMMPS input file

  1. Open “step5_assembly.
  2. Open Tk console (Menu-Extensions-TkConsole).
  3. Select atoms and convert to CG description.

How do I install Lammps?

How do I run LAMMPS with MPI?

For the MPI version, which allows you to run LAMMPS under Windows on multiple processors, follow these steps:

  1. Download and install MPICH2 for Windows.
  2. You’ll need to use the mpiexec.exe and smpd.exe files from the MPICH2 package.
  3. Get a command prompt by going to Start->Run… , then typing “cmd”.

How do I create a Lammps data file?

Click Create Data File:

  1. The tool will identify the atom types in the structure according to the force field and the bonded parameters such as bonds, angles and dihedrals: types and coefficients for the energy expression used in the force field.
  2. Non-bonded parameters will be also included in the data file.
