24 Defines a computation that calculates the local lattice structure
25 according to the formulation given in "(Ackland)"_#Ackland.
27 In contrast to the "centro-symmetry
28 parameter"_compute_centro_atom.html this method is stable against
29 temperature boost, because it is based not on the distance between
30 particles but the angles. Therefore statistical fluctuations are
31 averaged out a little more. A comparison with the Common Neighbor
32 Analysis metric is made in the paper.
34 The result is a number which is mapped to the following different
43 The neighbor list needed to compute this quantity is constructed each
44 time the calculation is performed (i.e. each time a snapshot of atoms
45 is dumped). Thus it can be inefficient to compute/dump this quantity
46 too frequently or to have multiple compute/dump commands, each of
47 which computes this quantity.-
51 This compute calculates a per-atom vector, which can be accessed by
52 any command that uses per-atom values from a compute as input. See
53 "Section 6.15"_Section_howto.html#howto_15 for an overview of
54 LAMMPS output options.
58 This compute is part of the USER-MISC package. It is only enabled if
59 LAMMPS was built with that package. See the "Making
60 LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#start_3 section for more info.
62 The per-atom vector values will be unitless since they are the
63 integers defined above.
