Re: [gmx-users] Potential Energy
I did not develop the force field of my molecule by myself. In stead I use the literature force field parameters. I guess not all the force field need the [pairs]. As long as I can get reasonable experimental observables, I can use such force field, right?

Re: [gmx-users] Potential Energy
Dear Justin: I finally figure out that the problem comes from the Coulomb 1-4 interactions defined by [pairs] part. When I remove this parts, the energy minimization ends with a big negative number.

[gmx-users] Potential Energy
Dear Users: I am in the process of setting up a new system. I have a 8.0*8.0*8.0 nm3 system which include 27800 molecules. When the system approach equilibrium, I found the potential energy is +3e5 (big positive number). Is this normal? Since based on my experience, for systems in such size, the potential energy is usually a big negative number? Does this mean that my force field parameter or molecule structure have problems?

Re: [gmx-users] Viscosity using periodic perturbation method
Dear Berk: Thank you so much for your help! I read your paper: " Determing the shear viscosity of model liquids from molecular dynamics simulations" You used NVT? My question is which one is better? NPT or NVT? "Strictly speaking it might be incorrect, but since pressure scaling is usually less than 1% it will not affect your results significantly."

Dear Herk: Thank you so much for your help! Maybe the way I asked make it confusing. I read your paper: " Determing the shear viscosity of model liquids from molecular dynamics simulations" You used NVT. My question is which one is better? NPT or NVT? Or you can use either of them.

[gmx-users] Viscosity using periodic perturbation method
Dear users: I was trying to calculate the viscosity of liquid system using periodic perturbation method. Does this method require NVT ensemble simulation in stead of NPT ? Because I read some literature on periodic perturbation method. they all used NVT. I did not found any information about this on the manual. Can I use NPT Non-equilibrium MD in order to use periodic perturbation method?

Re: [gmx-users] shift function for vdwtype and density
Dear all: This is the mdp I just used for the system. The funny thing is after a 8ns simulation I got a very high pressure and temperature: Temperature 343.437 Pressure (bar) 45.782 I also did another run with removing the vdw_switch in mdp and keep all other condition unchanged.

Re: [gmx-users] shift function for vdwtype and density
Dear David: Thank you so much for the valuable information. "Our conclusion in the above paper is to use PME for Coulomb and not shift Van der Waals" I have read the paper you mentioned and did not find how you treated the VdW. Have you done some work on the cut off method for vdw? Since I used PME for Coulomb in my system. I am still confusing why not shift for vdw. " I would also recommend to use TIP4P rather than TIP5P, as Jorgensen uses TIP4P for all his parameterizations." I have read Jorgensen's paper for the OPLS and realized that the TIP4P would be the first choice for combining with OPLS. However my concern is that TIP4P model is not as good as TIP5P in terms of diffusion constant and viscosity which are extremely important for my purpose. I also have compared SPC and TIP4P and turn out that SPC can give a better result for my system. Unfornately SPC has a very bad viscosity as TIP4P. So I am trying TIP5P. Do you think OPLS+ TIP5P can cause serious problem or horrible artifacts. If you can suggest some literatures on this that would be great. I really appericate all your help!

Re: [gmx-users] shift function for vdwtype and density
Dear Justin: Yes and I tried dispersion correction and it gives a larger density than I expected. The density of the polymer by vdwtype=shift is more close to the experimental value.

Dear Justin: Yes. Before I do the water+polymer, I did both the bulk systems separately. The density of TIP5P I mentioned earlier is the results for pure water bulk system. My concern is that if it is reasonable that the property of the system changes with different mdp conditions?

Re: [gmx-users] shift function for vdwtype and density
Dear Mark: Thanks for your answer. I have to use the same mdp file for both water and another polymer molecules in my system, right? Then if the shift function works well for the polymer, I can not get the best result for TIP5P? The density of TIP5P is different from the literature value of 982. Thanks!

Dear All: I found when I changed the vdwtype from cut-off to shift, the density of the system decrease significantly.All the other setting in the mdp file remain unchanged. For example the density of TIP5P water drops to 962. Does it mean I can not use the shift for vdwtype? -- Yanmei Song Ph.D. Candidate Department of Chemical Engineering Arizona State University ___ gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting!

Re: [gmx-users] Re: parameter of RB potential for OPLS force field
Dear Justin: Thanks for your response. I saw this in the ffoplsaabon.itp, which I think is a Periodic potential. [ dihedraltypes ] ; ijkl func coefficients ; Added DvdS for Quartz simulations SI OS1 0.000 3.766 3 SI OH1 0.000 3.766 3 Does this mean that we can still use a periodic potential combined with OPLS force field since it seems OPLS also consists of the periodic potential besides RB. It doesn't have to be necessary to use RB for the proper dihedral when you use OPLS force field, right? Thank you so much for your help! On Fri, May 15, 2009 at 6:37 PM, Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] Pressure coupling and cut-off
Dear Justin: Thank you for your suggestions. using shift for vdwtype helps a lot. Can I ask you another question? The density of my system is about 8% larger than the experimental value. Do you have any suggestions on how to reduce the density of the system. Or once the force field and all the parameters are fixed, the density is independent of the MD procedure?

Dear Justin: Thanks for your message. When I open the gro file using VMD it shows: atom:1950 bonds 1907 residue:43 I was thinking the problem may not come from the artifact of visualization. Since if the gro file is fine it should be like: atom:1950 bonds 1944 residue:6 because I have 6 chains in the box. This morning I found that it seems the problem was resolved by increasing the box size. Why is that? On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 5:10 PM, Justin A.

[gmx-users] Some molecules disconnected into many parts after EM
Dear users: I set up a 8nm cubic box with 6 long chain molecules. After EM, there is no error message. However I found that in the gro file by visualization, 2 of the chains has been split in many parts, which means many bonds in the molecules disconnected. And also the other 4 are good. I checked em.log and eveyting looks fine. Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 1545 steps, but did not reach the requested Fmax < 10. Potential Energy = -7.51461594735782e+03 Maximum force = 2.66505909651672e+02 on atom 1256 Norm of force = 9.84300153087768e+00 Anyone knows how to solve the problem?

That means both the rtp and pdb files work in your GROMACS-4.0.4. For the issue of" PDME residue has a net +0.3 charge" , I should change the charge to 0 for Si in PDME, which I have ignored. I will update the software and see if it works. Thanks so much for your help! On Thu, Apr 30, 2009 at 5:04 PM, Justin A.

Dear Dallas: Thanks for your response. It consists of many repeating units. Do you mean I can write the rtp entry for one repeating unit and give it a residue name. After that I need to insert this into the force field rtp file, right? How can I do that? It seems I can not change the rtp file. Thanks. On Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 4:03 PM, Dallas B.

Re: [gmx-users] Error by pdb2gmx
Dear Justin: Do you have any suggestions on how I can get the itp and gro file for a very long polymer molecules (for example 500 united-atoms), which only consists of Si, O and C atom. I can use PRODRG to generate a short chain. But PRODRG has limitation of atom numbers in a molecule, probably less than 300. So any ideas for building up a long chain based on the short chain? By the way, I already have the force field parameters. Thanks a lot! On Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 3:37 PM, Justin A.

[gmx-users] Error by pdb2gmx
Dear All users: I was trying to set up a long chain polymer system. I got the following PDB file from WebLab. How can I make changes to the file in order to make it as a GROMACS input pdb file. Then I can use pdb2gmx to get the gro, itp and top file. When I perform the pdb2gmx command, I got the error message: Residue 'MOL' not found in residue topology database Thank you in advance!

Re: [gmx-users] Non-equilibrium Viscosity Calculation
Hi, David: I performed the NEMD and got the following results for averaging the last 1 ns. So the second column should be the acceleration and last column should be the 1/viscosity. But notice that there are so many big negative numbers, which makes the average negative. Can you help me out here? what would be possible reason for this. 1000.61 -0.007012 -369.713501 1020.610.006066 320.372314 1040.000.002330 122.940369 1060.00 -0.001427 -75.253372 1080.000.002888 152.323944 1100.000.005696 300.385651 1120.000.002224 117.322388 1140.000.005990 316.127655 1160.000.008966 472.723846 1180.000.004485 236.538010 1200.00 -0.000249 -13.136140 1220.000.005020 264.962219 1240.000.009248 488.308197 1260.00 -0.000559 -29.509850 1280.00 -0.003190 -168.296112 1300.0001220.002394 126.418747 1320.0001220.003682 194.374222 1340.0001220.000371 19.600368 1360.000122 -0.002311 -122.002975 1380.0001220.001776 93.685326 1400.000122 -0.003357 -177.067062 1420.000122 -0.002963 -156.359772 1440.000122 -0.001078 -56.895496 1460.000122 -0.002273 -119.947853 1480.000122 -0.000658 -34.716648 1500.000122 -0.000928 -48.969398 1520.0001220.003464 182.804337 1540.000122 -0.001149 -60.652023 1560.0001220.004629 244.299088 1580.0001220.000485 25.557356 1600.0001220.002339 123.374527 1620.0001220.002612 137.982239 1640.0001220.002827 149.150589 1660.000122 -0.001614 -85.147079 1680.0001220.005144 271.660522 1700.000122 -0.002053 -108.302643 1720.0001220.006096 321.414948 1740.0001220.006021 317.682129 1760.000122 -0.001203 -63.409481 1780.0001220.000394 20.755482 1800.0001220.001910 100.748962 1820.000122 -0.001588 -83.742523 1840.0001220.002268 119.578842 1860.0001220.002422 127.769302 1880.000122 -0.000288 -15.188296 1900.0001220.003324 175.257568 1920.0001220.003688 194.440231 1940.0001220.005800 305.705505 On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 11:31 AM, David van der Spoel wrote: > Yanmei Song wrote: >> >> Yes, I want to get the equilibrium viscosity.

Yes, I want to get the equilibrium viscosity. My question is how I can identify the system approach a zero acceleration after I try several values. Thank you so much for your help.

Re: [gmx-users] Non-equilibrium Viscosity Calculation
Dear David: Thank you for your answer. i still have several questions. Do I have to start the non-equilibrium simulation after the system reach the equilibrium? Or I just need to start at the same starting point as the my equilibrium systems? What I need to do is just add the cos_acceleration: to the mdp file and nothing else need to be changed, right? Also what do you mean by "You need to do a few values such that you can extrapolate to zero acceleration." After I finish the run, what option I should use for g_energy in order to get the viscosity?

[gmx-users] Non-equilibrium Viscosity Calculation
Dear All: I wanted to get the viscosity of my simulated polymer system. From the manual it said that : GROMACS also has a non-equilibrium method for determining the viscosity" (page 123) Does this mean I just need to do a separate non-equilibrium MD run? In terms of mdp file, I just need to add the following options, right? acc_grps: accelerate: cos_acceleration: My question is: first, how to set the value of cos_acceleration: ? Second, after I finish the run, how can I get the viscosity from the simulation result? Anyone has done this yet?

But when I perform the command i got this: @title "Bulk Viscosity" @xaxis label "Time (ps)" @yaxis label "\8h\4 (cp)" @TYPE xy @ view 0.15, 0.15, 0.75, 0.85 @ legend on @ legend box on @ legend loctype view @ legend 0.78, 0.8 @ legend length 2 @ s0 legend "Shear" @ s1 legend "Bulk" 19.9601 182.954 131.299 39.9202 195.973 134.808 59.8802 209.345 130.015 79.8403 220.959 129.291 99.8004 227.397 133.514 119.76 224.858 128.183 139.721 234.26 124.201 159.681 239.432 112.779 179.641 233.247 90.5362 199.601 235.796 83.3315 219.561 232.205 80.3525 239.521 219.87 78.862 259.481 216.261 84.9063 279.441 221.782 81.2453 299.401 221.704 76.6335 319.361 212.225 83.4834 339.321 209.746 95.7125 359.281 208.776 100.049 379.242 209.623 101.467 399.202 204.93 111.357 419.162 196.223 117.499 439.122 198.347 121.818 459.082 200.15 118.537 479.042 203.718 105.464 499.002 209.584 98.6823 518.962 215.025 101.854 538.922 226.533 102.949 558.882 229.609 97.6396 578.842 228.081 96.0029 598.802 237.529 95.4091 618.762 245.169 95.4332 638.723 253.263 97.1168 658.683 251.794 86.5936 678.643 242.619 72.306 698.603 235.621 63.5751 718.563 230.813 67.5429 738.523 236.095 78.8719 758.483 240.001 84.0771 778.443 246.356 88.0818 798.403 256.28 91.1965 818.363 267.644 95.403 838.323 272.758 102.16 858.283 278.369 101.837 878.243 281.149 98.535 898.204 268.186 93.7993 918.164 254.442 81.3065 938.124 239.547 78.0454 958.084 221.896 87.4938 978.044 213.811 103.699 998.004 207.287 113.678 My question is what the value should be for the viscosity of the fluid.

[gmx-users] Question about the pairs parameters
Hi, If I want to define non bonded interactions in my top. I already have the sigma and epsi values. What I wanted to do is to to use combination rule 2, then how should I write the pairs part? ai aj fuc0, c1, ... 1 6 1 ; CAA CBH 2 7 1 ; CBF CAG 2 8 1 ; CBF CAH 2 9 1 ; CBF OAY 3 6 1 ; CAB CBH 4 6 1 ; CAC CBH 5 10 1 ; OAW CBJ So does the function here means the combination rule, or I need to define it in [defaults] ? if it is the latter, then what does the functions means here? The value i need to put here for c0 and c1 then should be sigma and epsi, right?

Above is the real parameter I used in my top file which probably specified the dihedrals as periodic (function 1) . But I also used OPLS force field which should read different parameters as RB. So when the MD runs, does it just read this parameters in the periodic dihedrals as a RB parameter? If my top is in a wrong form, how can md runs well and give a good result? 2009/1/28 Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] Question about the dihedrals in top file using OPLS force field in GROMACS
What makes me so confused is that I used this top for the MD run using ffoplsaa.itp and the there are no error message. Also I got a good result compared to experiment. Does it mean that what I did is totally wrong with using this top in combination with OPLS? Also if I used the atom type in opls_x with the x is less than 135, then it should be OPLS UA force field right? if I want to use OPLS, How can we get the top?

[gmx-users] Question about the dihedrals in top file using OPLS force field in GROMACS
Hi, I am using ffoplsaa.itp as my force field to do a simulation using GROMACS. I have a question about how to write the parameters in dihedrals in the itp file. [ dihedrals ] ; ai aj ak al fuc0, c1, m, ... 1 2 5 6 10.03.77 30.03.77 3 ; dih CAA CBF OAW CBH 2 5 6 9 10.03.77 30.03.77 3 ; dih CBF OAW CBH OAY 5 6 9 10 10.03.77 30.03.77 3 ; dih OAW CBH OAY CBJ 6 9 10 13 10.03.77 30.03.77 3 ; dih CBH OAY CBJ OBA 9 10 13 14 10.03.77 30.03.77 3 ; dih OAY CBJ OBA CBL Then if I am choosing ffoplsaa.itp force field, what is the meaning for c0,c1 and m under the [dihedrals]? Since i know that GROMOS and OPLS force field have a different format for proper dihedrals. For OPLS it seems there are four other parameter like v1 v2 v3 v4. Then my question is how can i define the dihedral parameters in itp file based on ffoplsaa force field in GROMACS? Thanks a lot!
