[lammps-users] DPD

Hi,
If I use pair_style dpd with global cutoff 1(defined by pair_style dpd 1 1.0 490499 command) and for one pair of particles, pair_coeff is having a cut off (3) larger than global cutoff(1). How does it make the neighbor list. ? It still uses the global cut off? What is the neighbor list making scheme in LAMMPS?

Thanks in advance,

you have ot see the global cutoff as the default value for the local
cutoffs. thus for the normal neighborlist generation, the largest of
the local cutoffs (and that includes the global one) is used.

check out the documentation for more details.

Not sure what you are asking. The neigh list is made
with a cutoff = pair cutoff + skin, with skin from the neighbor
command. If different pair types have different cutoffs then
that will also be used in building the neighbor list.
