If possibe then please provide me some ideas , advice and how can i start this journey.
currently i have basic knowlegde of software like lammps , namd ,openbabel and vmd ..+ some md simulation and qunatum chemisty knowledge
Yes but slow.
You can start by repeat a article, which you are interested in. Repeat the calculation step and the result.
Yes, you can.
Learn basic knowledge about how LAMMPS actually works. It can be found on YouTube; I think on channel parisLab UCLA.
Search for some LAMMPS tutorials.
Decide what research you want to conduct using LAMMPS and what material you want to use to perform your research.
Most importantly, look for potentials available for the material that you chose because, without them, you cannot proceed.
Lastly, publication in a well-reputed journal without any kind of affiliation might be difficult; you would require excellent writing skills and results.
I extend my best wishes for your success in your future endeavors.
