Simple example of in silico generation of carbide-derived carbons using quenched molecular dynamics and the ReaxFF force field.

Requires mbuild 0.8.1+ (thanks to Ray Matsumoto for updating the mBuild LAMMPS writer) and lammps built with user-reaxc.

A ReaxFF force field file is also necessary. The file we used, ff-feb14.reax, includes parameters reported in this publication.

Usage

python src/build.py
lammps -i src/in.quench
