Dr.Axel
From your apply,you seem not happy with my question.
As for lammps,it is a very efficient and useful tool for me.I should say
thanks for lammps and its develop team and their effort and devotion.
I should say thanks for lammps user's help and your help.
you can save your breath on this.
I have to say I am a new leaner, I may have some questions which may seem
obsurd or should not be.I just want to identify the reason why I can not
figour it out and what is wrong in my understanding process and the
conception.That is why I wrote the email about the Qs above.
To be honest, your reply is not what I expect to get exactly. Please
forgive what I say in this way.I should call you respectful Dr,because I am
a beginner, how to entice somebody,could you give me some suggestions???
you are mixing up two things here: 1) learning how to use LAMMPS and 2)
learning how to compute thermal conductivity.
the job of the mailing list is to discuss if you have problems with 1), but
it is not the purpose of the list to teach you 2).
that is your own responsibility and that if your adviser/supervisor/mentor
or equivalent. if you cannot figure out from the papers and text books that
you have read, perhaps it means that you have not read the proper ones or
that you are missing some more fundamental knowledge required to better
understand the texts you have read. in any case, this mailing list is not a
classroom and thus questions on learning methodology in general are - most
of the time - off-topic. there are forums specific for that, e.g. physics
exchange, research gate etc.
you can see it as the different between learning how to drive (2) and how
to operate a specific car (1). now your question seems to be the equivalent
as asking about how to turn on the turbocharger while the LAMMPS
documentation seems to tell you it doesn't have one.
If this letter cause some unconvenience for you, I should say sorry and you
can ignore my email or block my post.
it is more important that you understand choosing the right forum for your
inquiries. as of now, you need to provide convincing proof why the formula
you presented is different from what LAMMPS does, *and* a good argument for
why and how LAMMPS should be changed to serve your needs (and those of
others).
