AFMMaxForce

The AFMMaxForce is a flow control simulation step designed for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) simulations. It stops the simulation when all AFM tips have reached a specified maximum force.

type: FlowControl, AFMMaxForce
parameters:
- maxForce: real: Maximum force threshold for AFM tips \([force]\)
- tipType: string: Type name for AFM tip particles (default: “TIP”)

Example:

"afmMaxForce":{
  "type":["FlowControl","AFMMaxForce"],
  "parameters":{
    "maxForce": 100.0,
    "tipType": "TIP"
  }
}

Note

This step automatically detects and processes AFM interactors in the system.

Warning

Ensure that AFM interactors are properly set up in your simulation before using this step.
