About:
LAMMPS is a highly parallel, open-source classical molecular dynamics code. It models atomic, polymeric, cellular, and granular systems with a wide range of force fields. Its primary value is simulating material properties for research and engineering.
Key Features:
  • Massively parallel for high-performance computing
  • Supports diverse force fields and material models
  • Flexible input scripting and data analysis tools
Use Cases:
  • Simulating material properties at the atomic scale
  • Researching polymers, biomaterials, and composites
  • High-performance computing (HPC) benchmarking
Alternatives:
  • GROMACS – Specialized for biomolecular simulations with high performance
  • NAMD – Optimized for large-scale biomolecular systems
