Dear Lammps users,
I have a basic question about the variables use in Lammps, in my simulation the size of the a region varies by time and I need to use the number of atoms in the region to calculation some parameters for run at each time step.
So change in the number of atoms in that region is calculated as:
variable s equal “count(Silicon,Si1)” #where the s is the count of atoms in region at each time step
variable s0 equal $s #s0 is the initial number of atoms in that region and should not change during the simulation.
variable b equal $s0-v_s # b is the change in the number of atoms
Reading the Lammps help this looks to be right but yet the s0 keeps changing with s. I can not find the right way to do this and any help is very appreciated.
Regards,
Leyla

yes, as it should. you should have also noticed
a multiplication by 10, right?
please read the documentation for the variable command again
a variable s0 has to be expanded as ${s0}
s0 is the same as {s}0 which is not what you want.
