Thank Justin ! That is APL. How about bilayer thickness ? I made
density.xvg file of headgroup from using g_density.


g_dist with index groups specifying however you want to define the boundaries for the membrane, or (shameless plug) a lateral projection of thickness (from which an average can easily be derived: http://bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/GridMAT-MD/.

Dear All,

I want to know that my lipid bilayer is equilibrated or not yet. So i want
to calculate the change of area per lipid and the bilayer thickness versus
time.

Which tool or method should i use ?


Extract box vectors over time from the .edr file, then use a script of
your own creation to multiply them and divide by the number of lipids per
leaflet.  Of course, that goes out the window if there is a protein present.
