Dear LAMMPS users,
During the simulation of pouring particles in a box, I have faced a problem regarding neighbor bins. The error showed in the windows cmd is: “Cannot use neighbor bins - box size << cutoff”. One of the atoms has a diameter 1000 times larger than the smaller ones. I have included some portion of the code in the email. Any kind of help or suggestion is appreciated.
