Dear all

 

Im trying to extract the interaction energies between protein and solvent.
Since PME cant be used for this, plain cutoffs causes problems and shifted
cut-offs gives incorrect energies I want to use switched cutoff but with
rather long cutoffs to get the correct energy. 

 

Unfortunately my system is unstable and within a few ps the total energy and
kinetic energy fluctuates several hundred per cent. I´ve tried different
options but can´t get it to stabilize except if I´m using any other coulomb
type. Any ideas?
