[lammps-users] zero bond and angle energy

Hi ,
i am trying to simulate some CO2 molecules in a simple box. the code i have used is the following:

dimension 3
boundary p p p
units real
neighbor 2.0 bin
neigh_modify delay 0.5
atom_style full
bond_style harmonic
angle_style harmonic
pair_style lj/cut/coul/cut 8 10
pair_modify mix arithmetic

read_data CO2data.data

velocity all create 300 8745350 loop geom

pair_coeff 1 1 4.5512 3.014 4.5512 3.014 #OO epsilon(kcal/mol) sigma(A)
pair_coeff 1 2 2.6892 2.8995 2.6892 2.8995 #OC Lorentz-Berthelot
pair_coeff 2 2 1.5890 2.785 1.5890 2.785 #CC

bond_coeff 1 5000 1.16
angle_coeff 1 4500 180.0

fix 1 all shake 1e-6 800 1000 a 1

compute 1 all temp

dump_modify 2 image yes scale yes
dump 3 all atom 100 co2.xyz

fix 3 all rdf 500 rdf.out 500 1 1 1 2 2 2

run 25000
write_restart co2box30.restart

among other problems that i face and i hope i will sometime..., i see at the output that the bond and angle energy are all the time set to zero.why is this happening?

Thanks
Dimitris

the program does what you ask it to do. you use fix shake to keep
the molecules rigid. that will set their bonded energy to zero.
