In practice, within an extended quantum molecular dynamics model, four a-clustering （linear chain, kite, square and tetrahedron） configurations of 16O are employed in the initialization, 16O＋16O around the Fermi energy （40-60 MeV/nucleon） with impact parameter 1-3fro are simulated, and the directed and elliptic flows are analyzed.
