Pair styles
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
Classes that compute pairwise interactions are derived from the Pair
|
||||
class. In LAMMPS, pairwise calculation include many-body potentials
|
||||
such as EAM or Tersoff where particles interact without a static bond
|
||||
topology. New styles can be created to add new pair potentials to
|
||||
LAMMPS.
|
||||
Classes that compute pairwise non-bonded interactions are derived from
|
||||
the Pair class. In LAMMPS, pairwise calculation include many-body
|
||||
potentials such as EAM, Tersoff, or ReaxFF where particles interact
|
||||
without an explicit bond topology but include interactions beyond
|
||||
pairwise non-bonded contributions. New styles can be created to add
|
||||
support for additional pair potentials to LAMMPS. When the
|
||||
modifications are small, sometimes it is more effective to derive from
|
||||
an existing pair style class. This latter approach is also used by
|
||||
:doc:`Accelerator packages <Speed_packages>` where the accelerated style
|
||||
names differ from their base classes by an appended suffix.
|
||||
|
||||
Pair_lj_cut.cpp is a simple example of a Pair class, though it
|
||||
includes some optional methods to enable its use with rRESPA.
|
||||
The file ``src/pair_lj_cut.cpp`` is an example of a Pair class with a
|
||||
very simple potential function. It includes several optional methods to
|
||||
enable its use with :doc:`run_style respa <run_style>` and :doc:`compute
|
||||
group/group <compute_group_group>`.
