[docs]def KIM(model_name, simulator=None, options=None, debug=False): """Calculator wrapper for OpenKIM models Returns a suitable calculator that can be used with any model archived in the Open Knowledgebase of Interatomic Models (OpenKIM) at https://openkim.org. There are two kinds of models in KIM: Portable Models (PMs), which can be used with any KIM API-compliant simulator, and Simulator Models (SMs), which are essentially just wrappers around native commands in a specific simulator (often combined with values for the model parameters). PMs published on openkim.org contain the string '__MO_' in their name, while SMs published on openkim.org contain the string '__SM_' in their name. Parameters ---------- model_name : str The name of the KIM model installed on your system. KIM models published on openkim.org follow a specific naming scheme (see https://openkim.org/doc/schema/kim-ids). simulator : str, optional Used to identify the ASE calculator that will be used. Currently supported values include 'kimmodel', 'lammpslib', 'lammpsrun' and 'asap', and correspond to different calculators as follows: - kimmodel (default for PMs) : :py:mod:`ase.calculators.kim.kimmodel.KIMModelCalculator` - lammpsrun (PMs or LAMMPS SMs) : :py:mod:`ase.calculators.lammpsrun.LAMMPS` - lammpslib (default for LAMMPS SMs) : :py:mod:`ase.calculators.lammpslib.LAMMPSlib` - asap (PMs) : :py:mod:`asap3.Internal.OpenKIMcalculator.OpenKIMcalculator` - asap (ASAP SMs) : :py:mod:`asap3.Internal.BuiltinPotentials.EMT` In general, this argument should be omitted, in which case a calculator compatible with the specified model will automatically be determined. options : dict, optional Additional options passed to the initializer of the selected calculator. If ``simulator`` == 'kimmodel', possible options are: - ase_neigh (bool) : Whether to use the kimpy neighbor list library (False) or use ASE's internal neighbor list mechanism (True). Usually kimpy's neighbor list library will be faster. (Default: False) - neigh_skin_ratio (float) : The skin distance used for neighbor list construction, expressed as a fraction of the model cutoff (Default: 0.2) - release_GIL (bool) : Whether to release python GIL. Releasing the GIL allows a KIM model to run with multiple concurrent threads. (Default: False) See the ASE LAMMPS calculators doc page (https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/ase/calculators/lammps.html) for available options for the lammpslib and lammpsrun calculators. debug : bool, optional If True, detailed information is printed to stdout. If the lammpsrun calculator is being used, this also serves as the value of the ``keep_tmp_files`` option. (Default: False) Returns ------- ase.calculators.calculator.Calculator An ASE-compatible calculator. Currently, this will be an instance of KIMModelCalculator, LAMMPS (the lammpsrun calculator), or LAMMPSlib, which are all defined in the ASE codebase, or an instance of either OpenKIMcalculator or EMT defined in the asap3 codebase.
