#===========================================================================#
# 2 particle microrheology test #
# #
# Run consists of 2 colloidal particles undergoing Brownian motion in a #
# thermal lattice-Boltzmann fluid. #
# #
# Here, gamma (used in the calculation of the particle-fluid interaction #
# force) is calculated by default. Thus, the colloidal objects will have #
# a slightly larger "hydrodynamic" radii than given by the placement of #
# the particle nodes. #
# #
# Sample output from this run can be found in the file: #
# 'microrheology_setgamma.out' #

# Need a neighbor bin size smaller than the lattice-Boltzmann grid spacing
# to ensure that the particles belonging to a given processor remain inside
# that processors lattice-Boltzmann grid.
# The arguments for neigh_modify have been set to "delay 0 every 1", again
# to ensure that the particles belonging to a given processor remain inside
# that processors lattice-Boltzmann grid. However, these values can likely
# be somewhat increased without issue. If a problem does arise (a particle
# is outside of its processors LB grid) an error message is printed and
# the simulation is terminated.

# ForceAtoms are the particles at the center of each colloidal object which
# do not interact with the fluid, but are used to implement the hard-sphere
# interactions.
# FluidAtoms are the particles representing the surface of the colloidal
# object which do interact with the fluid.

# Create a lattice-Boltzmann fluid covering the simulation domain.
# This fluid feels a force due to the particles specified through FluidAtoms
# (however, this fix does not explicity apply a force back on to these
# particles...this is accomplished through the use of the viscous_lb fix).
# Use the standard LB integration scheme, a fluid viscosity = 1.0, fluid
# density= 0.0009982071, lattice spacing dx=1.2, and mass unit, dm=0.003.
# Use the default method to calculate the interaction force between the
# particles and the fluid. This calculation requires the surface area
# of the composite object represented by each particle node. By default
# this area is assumed equal to dx*dx; however, since this is not the case
# here, it is input through the setArea keyword (i.e. particles of type 2
# correspond to a surface area of 0.3015928947).
# Use the trilinear interpolation stencil to distribute the force from
# a given particle onto the fluid mesh.
# Use a thermal lattice-Boltzmann fluid (temperature 300K, random number
# seed=2762). This enables the particles to undergo Brownian motion in
# the fluid.
