Hi all,

Recently I used the HPMC simulation with depletant. I found when I use device=gpu, there's the depletant interaction, but whne I use device=cpu and mpirun to run the simulation, there's not depletant interaction. Can the depletant set only be used on GPU?

Thank you so much!

Best regards,
Feng Xuan

Feng,

This is a known bug: https://github.com/glotzerlab/hoomd-blue/issues/1448. Interesting that you find the GPU works. In our tests, the CPU works but the GPU does not.

I have no timeline for a fix. None of the current developers are familiar with the implicit depletant code.

Hi Anderson,

Thank you for your reply. I found that when I set the depletant fugacity a lower value, there's not an obvious depletion interactions. But if I set a higher value almost above 300, the depletion interactions will appear. I hope this information will be helpful.

Thank you. Regards,
Feng Xuan
