I just did 2 tests in first I do md rerun with SOL SOL exclusions along with PME option then I get forces on water atoms but in second case when I use Cut-Off for electrostatic forces are zero... not sure why PME introduces forces despite using energy exclusion group...

Because that's how PME works. Part of the electrostatic non-bonded contribution is done in reciprocal space, and that can't be readily decomposed into group-wise contributions.

    Also, in the case of spc/e bulk water when I do md rerun with SOL
    SOL exlcusion I see forces on water atoms, however I was expecting
    it to be zero.

        Yes, 7.3.19 says that all non-nonbonded interactions are
        excluded within energy_exclusion groups.

        What I really trying is to get forces on water atoms only
        because of water water interactions and I want force on
        protein atoms to be zero, so I do md rerun with
        energy_exclusion as PROTEIN PROTEIN PROTEIN SOL and also
        remove any bond interaction information from .top file for
        protein, but still I get force values on protein atoms. Not
        sure whats going wrong?

        thanks

            between atoms belonging to GRP group are excluded?

            What does manual 7.3.19 say?

                The sets of atoms for energy groups and such
                exclusions are defined by the index groups, not
                molecules. See manual 7.3 and wherever it talks about
                groups in an early chapter.

                    Hi

                    When we define energy group exclusions e.g. like
                    in manual energygrp excl = Protein Protein SOL SOL
                    and do md rerun, then only non-bonded
                    interactions between Protein and SOL are
                    computed. I am wondering what happens to bonded
                    interactions within the protein, do they
                    contribute to energies even though we have
                    excluded protein-protein interactions?


                Bonded interactions are unaffected, as you will see
                if you try it.
