Dear lammps-users,
When I am running lammps for granular flow using data file containing
two atom types of different radius, I am getting error "ERROR: Lost
atoms: original 32000 current 31999".
Why lammps is losing atom after some time steps. Is this signify that,
I cannot use lammps for atoms of different radius or there is any
other reason for this.
Thanking you

You can use atoms of different radius. The error is b/c
one or more atoms left the siimulation box. You need to
figure out why - it's usually a bad model of some sort.

Thanks Steve for your help. You are right, atoms are leaving the
simulation box and there is an error in my script file.
Thanking you
