Using the make command to install LAMMPS, but first, make should be installed:
bashCopy codesudo apt update
sudo apt install make
sudo apt install mpich
1- Download LAMMPS and extract it:
bashCopy codewget https://download.lammps.org/tars/lammps-27May2021.tar.gz
tar -xzvf lammps*.tar.gz
2- After the first step, navigate to the LAMMPS directory and the src subdirectory:
bashCopy codecd lam*/src
3- At this stage, you need to download and install all the necessary packages for the simulation. Below are some of the packages commonly needed for most simulations:
bashCopy codemake yes-kspace yes-rigid yes-molecule yes-manybody
Personally, instead of using the code above to install the packages, I use this code (I install all the packages first, then remove unnecessary ones):
bashCopy codemake yes-all
make no-lib
make no-ext
4- Compile:
bashCopy codemake clean-all
make mpi
5- After a successful compilation, the following executable file should be ready:
bashCopy codelmp_mpi
6- Copy the executable file to the LAMMPS input files directory and run it using the following command:
bashCopy codempirun -np 24 ./lmp_mpi -in input.in
The number 24 represents the number of cores being used.
