Dear all,
I wonder if there is some way in gromacs to dump the potential energy
(or internal energy) of each particle to the disk during a simulation.
No, because it isn't calculated.
That is, something similar to the dumping of the positions, velocities
and forces of the individual particles.
Is there a way to do this out of the box in gromacs?
Or has anyone done this by modifying the source?
Well, first you have to decide how to partition the energy arising from
each type of bonded interaction onto the participating atoms.
Actually, before that, I'd ask myself what I was hoping this
per-particle energy was going to tell me.
Mark
For instance:
- thermal conductivity (Green-Kubo relation)
- energy fluctuations in different parts of a inhomogeneous system (e.g.
protein in water)
But the first question about HOW to partitition intramolecular energy
remains. Even for intermolecular energy this is not straightforward,
although the easiest way there is to divide evenly between molecules.
