Question about "dump"

Hi all,
I’m a user of lammps. Here is the input file.

#bulk Silicon lattice
units metal
boundary p p p

atom_style atomic
variable x index 5.4305 5.4306 5.4307 5.4308 5.4309 5.4310 5.4311 5.4312 5.4313 5.4314 5.4315

lattice diamond $x
#lattice diamond 5.431
#lattice bcc 3.28
#lattice sc 2.60

region box block 0 3 0 3 0 3
create_box 1 box
create_atoms 1 box

pair_style sw
pair_coeff * * Si.sw Si
mass 1 28
neighbor 1.0 bin
neigh_modify every 1 delay 5 check yes

variable P equal pe/216
variable r equal 216/($x*3)^3

timestep 0.005
thermo 10
min_style sd
minimize 1.0e-12 1.0e-12 1000 1000

compute 3 all pe/atom
compute 4 all ke/atom
compute 5 all coord/atom 3.0

dump 1 all custom dump.atom id xs ys zs c_3 c_4 c_5
print “@@@@(lattice parameter, rho, energy per atom): $x $r $P”

clear
next x
jump in.silicon
But after the file was cnducted, I could not get the result file dump.atom. Please help me to solve the problem. Thank you.

You’re not going to get any output from the “dump” statement, because you’re not performing any dynamics in your system after you use the dump statement. You’ll need to have a minimize or run command available in order to do get any output. (At the very least, you need a “run 0” to get the dump file.
