<PRE>compute ID group-ID temp/deform/eff
</PRE>
<UL><LI>ID, group-ID are documented in <A HREF = "compute.html">compute</A> command
<LI>temp/deform/eff = style name of this compute command
</UL>
<P><B>Examples:</B>

<PRE>compute myTemp all temp/deform/eff
</PRE>
<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>Define a computation that calculates the temperature of a group of
nuclei and electrons using the electron force field, after subtracting
out a streaming velocity induced by the simulation box changing size
and/or shape, for example in a non-equilibrium MD (NEMD) simulation.
The size/shape change is induced by use of the <A HREF = "fix_deform_eff.html">fix
deform/eff</A> command. A compute of this style is
created by the <A HREF = "fix_nvt_sllod_eff.html">fix nvt/sllod/eff</A> command to
compute the thermal temperature of atoms for thermostatting purposes.
A compute of this style can also be used by any command that computes
a temperature, e.g. <A HREF = "thermo_modify.html">thermo_modify</A>, <A HREF = "fix_nh.html">fix
npt/eff</A>, etc.
</P>
<P>The calculation performed by this compute is exactly like that
described by the <A HREF = "compute_temp_deform.html">compute temp/deform</A>
command, except that the formula for the temperature includes the
radial electron velocity contributions, as discussed by the <A HREF = "compute_temp_eff.html">compute
temp/eff</A> command. Note that only the
translational degrees of freedom for each nuclei or electron are
affected by the streaming velocity adjustment. The radial velocity
component of the electrons is not affected.
</P>
<P><B>Output info:</B>
</P>
<P>This compute calculates a global scalar (the temperature) and a global
vector of length 6 (KE tensor), which can be accessed by indices 1-6.
These values can be used by any command that uses global scalar or
vector values from a compute as input. See <A HREF = "Section_howto.html#4_15">this
section</A> for an overview of LAMMPS output
options.
</P>
<P>The scalar value calculated by this compute is "intensive". The
vector values are "extensive".
</P>
<P>The scalar value will be in temperature <A HREF = "units.html">units</A>. The
vector values will be in energy <A HREF = "units.html">units</A>.
</P>
<P><B>Restrictions:</B>
</P>
<P>This compute is part of the "user-eff" package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#2_3">Making
LAMMPS</A> section for more info.
