Hi all
I would like to know how gromacs remove center of mass motion?

The COM velocity is the rate of change of the position of the COM, i.e. the mass-weighted average velocity of the particles. If you subtract that from each particle velocity, the COM velocity becomes zero. Likewise for angular motion, if applicable.

I thought it still allowed center of mass motion, but just did a
transformation of the coordinates at a certain frequency.

I've never heard of GROMACS doing anything like that for this purpose.

It's just like looking at the system in a noninertial system attached to
the COM of the group.
Is that right?

I don't know what you mean.
