Hello,
I would like to ask about using FENE and quartic bonds together.
I want to use both bond types together using,
bond_style hybrid fene quartic
bond_coeff 1 fene 30.0 1.5 1.0 1.0
bond_coeff 2 quartic 1200.0 -0.55 0.95 1.3 34.6878
but it seems like it is not allowed to use FENE and quartic together; it cannot hybridize bond styles with different topology settings.
I remember I was able to use these two bonds together using hybrid bond style before, so I just wanted to ask if there was an update regarding this.
I guess possible solution to this is to approximate FENE with quartic bond according to the parameters written in the manual,
bond_style quartic
bond_coeff 1 1200.0 -0.55 0.25 1.3 34.6878
bond_coeff 2 1200.0 -0.55 0.95 1.3 34.6878
by using B2 as 0.25 instead of 0.95 (bond id 1 is replacing FENE here).
Please let me know if this would be fine to approach this problem.
Thank you!
