I should have included some output Step= 32, Dmax= 2.4e-06 nm, Epot= -1.03223e+05 Fmax= 3.87326e+06, atom= 25439 Step= 33, Dmax= 1.2e-06 nm, Epot= -1.03222e+05 Fmax= 3.87334e+06, atom= 25439 Stepsize too small, or no change in energy. Converged to machine precision, but not to the requested precision Fmax < 10
Double precision normally gives you higher accuracy. You might need to increase your constraint accuracy, or turn off constraints alltogether (set constraints = none in mdp file) writing lowest energy coordinates. Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 34 steps, but did not reach the requested Fmax < 10. Potential Energy = -1.4354568e+06 Maximum force = 6.9535597e+10 on atom 25439 Norm of force = 4.5592896e+08 More details here. http://www.hydrogenathome.org/result.php?resultid=1291344 On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 10:59 AM, Jack Shultz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I think that my minimization are not running long enough.
