|

<P>The rescaling is applied to the translational degrees of freedom

<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: Unlike the <A HREF = "fix_nh.html">fix nvt/eff</A> command which
|
||||||
|
performs Nose/Hoover thermostatting AND time integration, this fix
|
||||||
|
does NOT perform time integration. It only modifies velocities to
|
||||||
|
effect thermostatting. Thus you must use a separate time integration
|
||||||
|
fix, like <A HREF = "fix_nve_eff.html">fix nve/eff</A> to actually update the positions of atoms using the modified velocities. Likewise, this fix should not
|
||||||
|
normally be used on atoms that also have their temperature controlled
|
||||||
|
by another fix - e.g. by <A HREF = "fix_nh.html">fix nvt/eff</A> or <A HREF = "fix_langevin_eff.html">fix
|
||||||
|

|

<P>See <A HREF = "Section_howto.html#4_16">this howto section</A> of the manual for a
|

discussion of different ways to compute temperature and perform
|
||||||
|
thermostatting.
|
||||||
|
</P>
|
||||||
|
<P>This fix computes a temperature each timestep. To do this, the fix
|
||||||
|
creates its own compute of style "temp", as if one of this command had
|
||||||
|
been issued:
|
||||||
|
</P>
|
||||||
|
<PRE>compute fix-ID_temp group-ID temp/eff
|
||||||
|
</PRE>
|
||||||
|
<P>See the <A HREF = "compute_temp_eff.html">compute temp/eff</A> for details. Note that the ID of the new compute is the fix-ID + underscore + "temp", and the
|
||||||
|
group for the new compute is the same as the fix group.
|
||||||
|
</P>
|
||||||
|
<P>Note that this is NOT the compute used by thermodynamic output (see
|
||||||
|
the <A HREF = "thermo_style.html">thermo_style</A> command) with ID = <I>thermo_temp</I>.
|
||||||
|
This means you can change the attributes of this fix's temperature
|
||||||
|
(e.g. its degrees-of-freedom) via the
|
||||||
|
<A HREF = "compute_modify.html">compute_modify</A> command or print this temperature
|
||||||
|
during thermodynamic output via the <A HREF = "thermo_style.html">thermo_style
|
||||||
|
custom</A> command using the appropriate compute-ID.
|
||||||
|
It also means that changing attributes of <I>thermo_temp</I> will have no
|
||||||
|
effect on this fix.
|
||||||
|
</P>
|
||||||
|
<P>Like other fixes that perform thermostatting, this fix can be used
|
||||||
|
with <A HREF = "compute.html">compute commands</A> that calculate a temperature
|
||||||
|
after removing a "bias" from the atom velocities. E.g. removing the
|
||||||
|
center-of-mass velocity from a group of atoms or only calculating
|
||||||
|
temperature on the x-component of velocity or only calculating
|
||||||
|
temperature for atoms in a geometric region. This is not done by
|
||||||
|
default, but only if the <A HREF = "fix_modify.html">fix_modify</A> command is used
|
||||||
|
to assign a temperature compute to this fix that includes such a bias
|
||||||
|
term. See the doc pages for individual <A HREF = "compute.html">compute
|
||||||
|
commands</A> to determine which ones include a bias. In
|
||||||
|
this case, the thermostat works in the following manner: the current
|
||||||
|
temperature is calculated taking the bias into account, bias is
|
||||||
|
removed from each atom, thermostatting is performed on the remaining
|
||||||
|
thermal degrees of freedom, and the bias is added back in.

fix temp/rescale/eff command :h3
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Syntax:]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
fix ID group-ID temp/rescale/eff N Tstart Tstop window fraction :pre
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ID, group-ID are documented in "fix"_fix.html command
|
||||||
|
temp/rescale/eff = style name of this fix command
|
||||||
|
N = perform rescaling every N steps
|
||||||
|
Tstart,Tstop = desired temperature at start/end of run (temperature units)
|
||||||
|
window = only rescale if temperature is outside this window (temperature units)
|
||||||
|
fraction = rescale to target temperature by this fraction :ul
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Examples:]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
fix 3 flow temp/rescale/eff 10 1.0 100.0 0.02 1.0 :pre
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Description:]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Reset the temperature of a group of atoms by explicitly rescaling
|
||||||
|
their velocities.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The rescaling is applied to the translational degrees of freedom
|
||||||
|
for all particles, and the electronic radial degrees of freedom. The translational degrees of freedom can also have a bias velocity removed from them before thermostatting takes place; see the description below.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Rescaling is performed every N timesteps. The target temperature is a
|
||||||
|
ramped value between the {Tstart} and {Tstop} temperatures at the
|
||||||
|
beginning and end of the run.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Rescaling is only performed if the difference between the current and
|
||||||
|
desired temperatures is greater than the {window} value. The amount
|
||||||
|
of rescaling that is applied is a {fraction} (from 0.0 to 1.0) of the
|
||||||
|
difference between the actual and desired temperature. E.g. if
|
||||||
|
{fraction} = 1.0, the temperature is reset to exactly the desired
|
||||||
|
value.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: Unlike the "fix nvt/eff"_fix_nh.html command which
|
||||||
|
performs Nose/Hoover thermostatting AND time integration, this fix
|
||||||
|
does NOT perform time integration. It only modifies velocities to
|
||||||
|
effect thermostatting. Thus you must use a separate time integration
|
||||||
|
fix, like "fix nve/eff"_fix_nve_eff.html to actually update the positions of atoms using the modified velocities. Likewise, this fix should not
|
||||||
|
normally be used on atoms that also have their temperature controlled
|
||||||
|
by another fix - e.g. by "fix nvt/eff"_fix_nh.html or "fix
|
||||||
|
langevin/eff"_fix_langevin_eff.html commands.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See "this howto section"_Section_howto.html#4_16 of the manual for a
|
||||||
|
discussion of different ways to compute temperature and perform
|
||||||
|
thermostatting.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This fix computes a temperature each timestep. To do this, the fix
|
||||||
|
creates its own compute of style "temp", as if one of this command had
|
||||||
|
been issued:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
compute fix-ID_temp group-ID temp/eff :pre
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See the "compute temp/eff"_compute_temp_eff.html for details. Note that the ID of the new compute is the fix-ID + underscore + "temp", and the
|
||||||
|
group for the new compute is the same as the fix group.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that this is NOT the compute used by thermodynamic output (see
|
||||||
|
the "thermo_style"_thermo_style.html command) with ID = {thermo_temp}.
|
||||||
|
This means you can change the attributes of this fix's temperature
|
||||||
|
(e.g. its degrees-of-freedom) via the
|
||||||
|
"compute_modify"_compute_modify.html command or print this temperature
|
||||||
|
during thermodynamic output via the "thermo_style
|
||||||
|
custom"_thermo_style.html command using the appropriate compute-ID.
|
||||||
|
It also means that changing attributes of {thermo_temp} will have no
|
||||||
|
effect on this fix.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Like other fixes that perform thermostatting, this fix can be used
|
||||||
|
with "compute commands"_compute.html that calculate a temperature
|
||||||
|
after removing a "bias" from the atom velocities. E.g. removing the
|
||||||
|
center-of-mass velocity from a group of atoms or only calculating
|
||||||
|
temperature on the x-component of velocity or only calculating
|
||||||
|
temperature for atoms in a geometric region. This is not done by
|
||||||
|
default, but only if the "fix_modify"_fix_modify.html command is used
|
||||||
|
to assign a temperature compute to this fix that includes such a bias
|
||||||
|
term. See the doc pages for individual "compute
|
||||||
|
commands"_compute.html to determine which ones include a bias. In
|
||||||
|
this case, the thermostat works in the following manner: the current
|
||||||
|
temperature is calculated taking the bias into account, bias is
|
||||||
|
removed from each atom, thermostatting is performed on the remaining
|
||||||
|
thermal degrees of freedom, and the bias is added back in.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Restart, fix_modify, output, run start/stop, minimize info:]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
No information about this fix is written to "binary restart
|
||||||
|
files"_restart.html.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The "fix_modify"_fix_modify.html {temp} option is supported by this
|
||||||
|
fix. You can use it to assign a temperature "compute"_compute.html
|
||||||
|
you have defined to this fix which will be used in its thermostatting
|
||||||
|
procedure, as described above. For consistency, the group used by
|
||||||
|
this fix and by the compute should be the same.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The "fix_modify"_fix_modify.html {energy} option is supported by this
|
||||||
|
fix to add the energy change implied by a velocity rescaling to the
|
||||||
|
system's potential energy as part of "thermodynamic
|
||||||
|
output"_thermo_style.html.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This fix computes a global scalar which can be accessed by various
|
||||||
|
"output commands"_Section_howto.html#4_15. The scalar is the
|
||||||
|
cummulative energy change due to this fix. The scalar value
|
||||||
|
calculated by this fix is "extensive".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This fix can ramp its target temperature over multiple runs, using the
|
||||||
|
{start} and {stop} keywords of the "run"_run.html command. See the
|
||||||
|
"run"_run.html command for details of how to do this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This fix is not invoked during "energy minimization"_minimize.html.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
