Implement forces

Open RandomDefaultUser opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

A current project in MALA is to implement the atomic forces.

Using the chain rule:

  • [ ] Implement dB/dR (LAMMPS, @athomps )
  • [x] Implement dd/dB (pytorch autograd, @RandomDefaultUser )
  • [ ] Implement dE/dd (@namodin )

Using the Hellman-Feynman theorem:

  • [x] Implement the HF forces (@RandomDefaultUser )

In the context of this, we should think about units as mentioned in #30 .

dd/dB is implemented.

Hellmann-Feynman forces are implemented, but only the possibly accesible local part (see #226 ).
