class LeesEdwards(ScriptInterfaceHelper):
"""
Interface to the :ref:`Lees-Edwards boundary conditions`.
When writing H5MD files, the shear direction and shear plane normals
are written as integers instead of characters, with 0 = *x*-axis,
1 = *y*-axis, 2 = *z*-axis.
Attributes
----------
protocol : :obj:`object`
Lees--Edwards protocol.
shear_velocity: :obj:`float`
Current shear velocity.
pos_offset : :obj:`float`
Current position offset
shear_direction : :obj:`str`, {'x', 'y', 'z'}
Shear direction.
shear_plane_normal : :obj:`str`, {'x', 'y', 'z'}
Shear plane normal.
Methods
-------
set_boundary_conditions()
Set a protocol, the shear direction and shear normal.
Parameters
----------
protocol : :obj:`object`
shear_direction : :obj:`str`, {'x', 'y', 'z'}
shear_plane_normal : :obj:`str`, {'x', 'y', 'z'}

Parameters
----------
initial_pos_offset : :obj:`float`
Positional offset at the Lees--Edwards boundary at t=0.
shear_velocity : :obj:`float`
Shear velocity (velocity jump) across the Lees--Edwards boundary.

Parameters
----------
initial_pos_offset : :obj:`float`
Positional offset at the Lees--Edwards boundary at t=0.
amplitude : :obj:`float`
Maximum amplitude of the positional offset at the Lees--Edwards boundary.
omega : :obj:`float`
Radian frequency of the oscillation.
time_0 : :obj:`float`
Time offset of the oscillation.
