Papers citing LAMMPS
A good way to learn more about what can be done with LAMMPS — beyond studying the manual and learning from tutorials — is to read papers about studies that used LAMMPS.
Here are Google Scholar links to lists of papers which cite LAMMPS, via either our recent 2022 Comp. Phys. Comm. paper, or the original 1995 J. Comp. Phys. paper. Both papers are briefly discussed on the citing LAMMPS page. Note that Google Scholar is rather inclusive and also includes pre-prints, reports, posted thesis documents, and more.
Most of the papers discuss simulation results generated with LAMMPS, but some describe other codes or algorithms and may only cite LAMMPS in passing.
At the two links for individual LAMMPS papers, you can search the contents of the citing papers by checking the box at the top of the page for Search within citing articles. The Advanced search option in the hamburger menu to the left lets you search for multiple words, exact phrases, only the title, by author or journal, or within date ranges. For example, searching within the citations of the 1995 LAMMPS paper by author:
