Hi, all,
I finally wrote a decane topology file. I used it to some simple simulation.
The energy minimization works, while after a simple nvt equilibration,
the shape of the molecules changed.
Please find the images before and after the nvt equilibration from the
following links.

I see nothing wrong. The outcome seems totally normal for an MD simulation. If
molecules didn't change their configuration, what would be the point of
simulating? ;)

The following is the topology part for the decane molecule. Please
help to check if there is anything wrong. C2 and C3 are CH2 and CH3
respectively.
