(1) I have got the pull.xvg file from the simulation. But there the data resolution is very high e.g after every 2 ps. But I don' need that. So, I tried to create a new .xvg file with lower resolution of data e.g. after every 50 ps. So, I used the g_traj command.
(2) So, there is no error in getting the negative value of force, right? (3) I have also created a dist.xvg file by applying g_dist command. Can I use force.xvg (created by g_traj) and dist.xvg (created by g_dist) files to get force vs. extension profile? Best Samrat ________________________________ From: Justin A.

What does it mean? Please suggest. Simple Newtonian physics. g_traj is extracting instantaneous forces on the constituent atoms, as stored in the .trr file, so all effects are considered - pull force, intermolecular collisions, etc. -Justin > Samrat -- ======================================== Justin A.
