compute smd/ulsph/strain/rate command

Syntax

compute ID group-ID smd/ulsph/strain/rate
  • ID, group-ID are documented in compute command
  • smd/ulsph/strain/rate = style name of this compute command

Examples

compute 1 all smd/ulsph/strain/rate

Description

Define a computation that outputs the rate of the logarithmic strain tensor for particles interacting via the updated Lagrangian SPH pair style.

See this PDF guide to using Smooth Mach Dynamics in LAMMPS.

Output info:

This compute calculates a per-particle vector of vectors (tensors), which can be accessed by any command that uses per-particle values from a compute as input. See Section 6.15 for an overview of LAMMPS output options.

The values will be given in units of one over time.

The per-particle vector has 6 entries, corresponding to the xx, yy, zz, xy, xz, yz components of the symmetric strain rate tensor.

Restrictions

This compute is part of the USER-SMD package. It is only enabled if LAMMPS was built with that package. See the Making LAMMPS section for more info. This compute can only be used for particles which interact with the updated Lagrangian SPH pair style.
