<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Bound the simulation with a moving wall which reflect particles in the
fix top all wall/piston zlo vel 10.0 ramp
</PRE>
<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>Bound the simulation with a moving wall which reflect particles in the
specified group and drive the system with an effective infinite-mass
piston capable of driving shock waves.</p>
<p>A momentum mirror technique is used, which means that if an atom (or
piston capable of driving shock waves.
</P>
<P>A momentum mirror technique is used, which means that if an atom (or
the wall) moves such that an atom is outside the wall on a timestep by
a distance delta (e.g. due to <a class="reference internal" href="fix_nve.html"><em>fix nve</em></a>), then it is put
a distance delta (e.g. due to <A HREF = "fix_nve.html">fix nve</A>), then it is put
back inside the face by the same delta, and the velocity relative to
the moving wall is flipped in z. For instance, a stationary particle
hit with a piston wall with velocity vz, will end the timestep with a
velocity of 2*vz.</p>
<p>Currently the <em>face</em> keyword can only be <em>zlo</em>. This creates a piston
velocity of 2*vz.
</P>
<P>Currently the <I>face</I> keyword can only be <I>zlo</I>. This creates a piston
moving in the positive z direction. Particles with z coordinate less
than the wall position are reflected to a z coordinate greater than
the wall position. If the piston velocity is vpz and the particle
velocity before reflection is vzi, the particle velocity after
reflection is -vzi + 2*vpz.</p>
<p>The initial position of the wall can be specified by the <em>pos</em> keyword.</p>
<p>The final velocity of the wall can be specified by the <em>vel</em> keyword</p>
<p>The <em>ramp</em> keyword will cause the wall/piston to adjust the velocity
linearly from zero velocity to <em>vel</em> over the course of the run. If
the <em>ramp</em> keyword is omitted then the wall/piston moves at a constant
velocity defined by <em>vel</em>.</p>
<p>The <em>temp</em> keyword will cause the region immediately in front of the
reflection is -vzi + 2*vpz.
</P>
<P>The initial position of the wall can be specified by the <I>pos</I> keyword.
</P>
<P>The final velocity of the wall can be specified by the <I>vel</I> keyword
</P>
<P>The <I>ramp</I> keyword will cause the wall/piston to adjust the velocity
linearly from zero velocity to <I>vel</I> over the course of the run. If
the <I>ramp</I> keyword is omitted then the wall/piston moves at a constant
velocity defined by <I>vel</I>.
</P>
<P>The <I>temp</I> keyword will cause the region immediately in front of the
wall/piston to be thermostated with a Langevin thermostat. This
region moves with the piston. The damping and kicking are measured in
the reference frame of the piston. So, a temperature of zero would
mean all particles were moving at exactly the speed of the
wall/piston.</p>
<p>The <em>units</em> keyword determines the meaning of the distance units used
to define a wall position, but only when a numeric constant is used.</p>
<p>A <em>box</em> value selects standard distance units as defined by the
<a class="reference internal" href="units.html"><em>units</em></a> command, e.g. Angstroms for units = real or metal.
A <em>lattice</em> value means the distance units are in lattice spacings.
The <a class="reference internal" href="lattice.html"><em>lattice</em></a> command must have been previously used to
define the lattice spacings.</p>
