Dear Lammps user
I’m confusing a problem about periodic boundary condition (PBC) in lammps data file when the atom has bonds.
For example, I have this unit solid structure, each atom is connected with 4 bonds:
−A1−A2−A3−A4−
−B1−B2−B3−B4−
−C1−C2−C3−C4−
−D1−D2−D3−D4−
Now i want to simulate this structure with PBC.
In my data file:
Atoms
atomid atomtype charge x y z
…
Bonds section
Sine it’s PBC, in Bonds Section, should I also include a bond between A1-A4, B1-B4, C1-C4, D1-D4, A1-D1, A2-D2, A3-D3, A4-D3 ?
Thanks
Davie
