Hi there, 

I am trying to read in a LAMMPS dump file for a simulation of liquid butane 
into csg_stat as a simple example of how to map and process LAMMPS 
trajectories, before moving onto my more complex system of long chain 
polymers. 

I know that there are a couple of previous questions regarding LAMMPS 
topologies but I cannot quite get it working.

First I tried using a .pdb file specified in my topol.xml file but this 
gave an error:

"an error occurred:
P-P.pdb: unknown topology format" which I find strange because in the 
manual it gives an example of using a pdb file for topology, any ideas why 
this error would occur?

Anyway, I then decided to try and use the lammps .dump file as the topology 
so topol.xml now looks like this: 

<topology base="atoms_nvt_prod.dump">/ITEM
  <molecules>
     <clear/>
     <define name="B" first="1" nbeads="14" nmols="100"/>
  </molecules>
</topology>

So I have defined one molecule type which consists of 14 atoms and there 
are 100 molecules in the system beginning at atom 1. 

I think the problem lies in the coarse-grained mapping file. When listing 
atoms which belong to a particular bead, if the syntax is 
RESID:RESNAME:ATOMNAME then I'm struggling to work out what they should be 
for my system. 

Here is the top of my dump file:

ITEM: TIMESTEP

13106 1 -25.5393 -19.9713 -24.9935
11466 1 -22.2057 -26.6297 -23.7546

3362 1 -20.4076 -20.3751 -20.0356
639 1 -22.2076 -27.6125 -26.1257

etc ...

Would RESID just be 1? There is no information about residues in the dump 
file, does there need to be? It is possible to printout the molecule number 
in the dump file. 

For RESNAME, I wouldn't know what to use either.

For ATOMNAME I could use the atom type, so atom name would be "2" for C and 
"1" for H?

The choice for these labels would be more obvious from my .pdb file:


HETATM    1  C7   B   A   1      -5.985   7.723  -2.9591.00  0.00

H
HETATM   14  H103 B   A   1      -9.071   7.031  -1.4361.00  0.00           
H

So for the first atom it would be   1:B:C7 for example?

  

Any help would be greatly appreciated, 

Thanks, Dan.
