[lammps-users] about error for hybrid lj/cut and airebo

Hi,
When I compute the interaction energy(LJ potential) with hybrid lj/cut and airebo, the newest lammps (10 Nov 2010) returns “ERROR: Pair hybrid sub-style does not support single call”. But that input file works fine with 2010-08-25 version.
What’s wrong with my input?

The related code as follows

pair_style hybrid/overlay lj/cut 10 airebo 3.0 0 0
pair_coeff * * airebo CH.airebo C C
pair_coeff 1 2 lj/cut 0.00373 3.400

compute 1 fix1 group/group fix2
variable E_vdw equal c_1

thermo_style custom step v_E_vdw

you cannot do a group/group compute with a many-body potential.

hi, axel

Steve had modified the code to make it work, 
more details see [http://lammps.sandia.gov/threads/msg14701.html](http://lammps.sandia.gov/threads/msg14701.html).

But when I update to the newest code, it returns that error.

I have no idea how to modify these codes.

Thank you!

hi, axel

Steve had modified the code to make it work,
more details see LAMMPS Molecular Dynamics Simulator.

in the mail he writes clearly that group/group between
airebo is not supported. since you are using hybrid/overlay
airebo will be called, i.e. it is not supported.

But when I update to the newest code, it returns that error.

I have no idea how to modify these codes.

tough luck.

Axel,
Sorry, it’s my fault.

I should use “pair_style hybrid lj/cut 10 airebo 3.0 0 0” , not hybrid/overlay.

Thank you for your help!
