fix smd/adjust_dt command :h3
[Syntax:]
fix ID group-ID smd/adjust_dt arg :pre
ID, group-ID are documented in "fix"_fix.html command :ulb,l
smd/adjust_dt = style name of this fix command :l
arg = {s_fact} :l
{s_fact} = safety factor :pre
:ule
[Examples:]
fix 1 all smd/adjust_dt 0.1 :pre
[Description:]
The fix calculates a new stable time increment for use with the SMD time integrators.
The stable time increment is based on multiple conditions. For the SPH pair styles, a
CFL criterion (Courant, Friedrichs & Lewy, 1928) is evaluated, which determines the the speed of
sound cannot propagate further than a typical spacing between particles within a single time step to ensure
no information is lost. For the contact pair styles, a linear analysis of the pair potential determines a
stable maximum time step.
This fix inquires the minimum stable time increment across all particles contained in the group for which this
fix is defined. An additional safety factor {s_fact} is applied to the time increment.

[Restart, fix_modify, output, run start/stop, minimize info:]
Currently, no part of USER-SMD supports restarting nor minimization.
[Restrictions:]
This fix is part of the USER-SMD package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the "Making LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#start_3
section for more info.
