first derivative of force

Hi all,

I am doing the simulation of anisotropic-NPH. Since the enthalpy can't conserve, I'd like to ask whether lammps can caculate the first derivative of force? Is there any source codes in lammps can do that? Thanks.

what is "anisotropic NPH"?

Since the enthalpy can't conserve,

why not?

no. not directly.

no.

axel.

fix 1 all nph aniso 1.0 1.0 1000.0

?
I was wondering this too.

(I'm probably misunderstanding what you're trying to do.)

Anyway, calculating the second derivative of the potential is no fun.
