Hello,

I'm getting problems to simulate amorphous silica with potentials I made
myself : table_Si_Si.xvg, table_Si_O.xvg, table_O_O.xvg and table.xvg
(which should not be used as all the possible non-bonded interactions
are given in the three previous tables).

The generation of the topology file with grompp works well but when I'm
try to simulate my system (mdrun), Im getting a segmentation fault.

It's vanishingly rare for GROMACS to segfault without an error message. Consult all of stdout, stderr and your .log file for messages.

Probably, your combination of starting configuration and model physics are broken. If you're confident your starting configuration is good (e.g. you know it works with some other Si-O force field) then you'll have to go over your table files, I suppose.

Am I
missing something in the topology file or grompp.mdp file ? I just want
to have the non-bonded interactions defined in my tables to be applied.
My topology and input file are hereafter. I can give you my tables.xvg
but they are too big to be posted on the forum.

Thanks a lot

My topology file TOPOL.TOP is the following :
