find_compute_neighlist(*args)

Find neighbor list index of compute neighbor list :param computeid: name of compute :type computeid: string :param request: index of neighbor list request, in case there are more than one, defaults to 0 :type request: int, optional :return: neighbor list index if found, otherwise -1 :rtype: int

find_fix_neighlist(*args)

Find neighbor list index of fix neighbor list :param fixid: name of fix :type fixid: string :param request: index of neighbor list request, in case there are more than one, defaults to 0 :type request: int, optional :return: neighbor list index if found, otherwise -1 :rtype: int

find_pair_neighlist(*args)

Find neighbor list index of pair style neighbor list Try finding pair instance that matches style. If exact is set, the pair must match style exactly. If exact is 0, style must only be contained. If pair is of style pair/hybrid, style is instead matched the nsub-th hybrid sub-style. Once the pair instance has been identified, multiple neighbor list requests may be found. Every neighbor list is uniquely identified by its request index. Thus, providing this request index ensures that the correct neighbor list index is returned. :param style: name of pair style that should be searched for :type style: string :param exact: controls whether style should match exactly or only must be contained in pair style name, defaults to True :type exact: bool, optional :param nsub: match nsub-th hybrid sub-style, defaults to 0 :type nsub: int, optional :param request: index of neighbor list request, in case there are more than one, defaults to 0 :type request: int, optional :return: neighbor list index if found, otherwise -1 :rtype: int

gather_atoms(*args, concat=False, ids=None)

Gather atom properties

Parameters:
  • name ({'x', 'mass', 'id', 'type', 'mask', 'v', 'f',) – ‘molecule’, ‘q’, ‘mu’, ‘omega’, ‘angmom’, ‘torque’, ‘radius’} the property of atom to be extracted

  • concat (bool, optional. Default False) – If True, gather information from all processors, but not sorted according to Atom ids

  • ids (list, optional. Default None) – If a list of ids are provided, the required information for only those atoms are returned

Returns:

val – If the requested name has multiple dimensions, output will be a multi-dimensional array.

Return type:

array of length n_atoms sorted by atom ids

Notes

This method gathers information from all processors.

Scatter atoms for the lammps library

set_fix_external_callback(*args)

Follows the signature of LAMMPS’s set_fix_external_callback(fix_id, callback, caller=None). The caller argument is a list of inputs to the callback function, including class instances and, importantly, the LammpsLibrary instance itself. Since LAMMPS’s set_fix_external_callback allows passing to itself a self-reference, we want to keep this feature. Because the LAMMPS instance is unavailable at this stage, we insert a placeholder in its position, which will later be replaced with the actual LAMMPS instance.

set_variable(*args) Future

Set the value of a string style variable.

Parameters:

args (tuple) – Variable number of arguments specifying the variable name and value.

Returns:

flag – A future object representing the success flag (0 if successful, -1 otherwise).

Return type:

Future

property version: Future

Get the version of Lammps.

Returns:

version – A future object representing the version string of Lammps.

Return type:
