LAMMPS tutorials on the simulations of shock wave propagation and ballistic impact

We are currently investigating the shock response of materials using molecular dynamics (MD). This project showed us that the preparation of properly equilibrated MD models can be very challenging even for someone with a strong background in molecular modeling. Therefore, we thought of sharing some of our recent MD models with the research community. We would like to share the LAMMPS input and data files required to run MD simulation of shock wave propagation and ballistic impacts. The two MD models are shown above. I have provided ~3-minute overview of the files here: https://youtu.be/hgZXvUdr-Qo

You can download the shock model from here: https://github.com/nuwan-d/MD_model_JAM-21-1174 and the impact model from here: https://github.com/nuwan-d/md_impact_tests

Good luck with your MD simulations.
