the calculation data is "nan"

Dear Lammps users,

I am now trying to use reaxff.

The calculation is running, but the calculation data is “nan”

Do you know what is problem?

Best,
Choi

most likely a bad initial geometry or an invalid box geometry to that you have atoms too close to each other. look at the very high initial potential energy. not a good sign.
