You need to generate index file (make_ndx) with  a group contaning the
molecule you want to translate. Then use that index file in editconf step.

Thank You Dan and Lakshman


I will try using gmx editconf and try to translate and see if I could get the 
arrangement.

I am trying to create a super cell of 7x7x1 size and each unit cell has about 
276 atoms, so I was trying to find out if there is any other simpler 
utility/program like genconf which can do zigzag stacking for such a big super 
cell.


Lakshman

I am not sure if I followed your suggestion,  how can we translate only one 
molecule in a box  using editconf?

Re: [gmx-users] zig-zag stacking

2018-07-31 Thread Lakshman Ji Verma
Adding on to Dan’s suggestions, you can create a box containing two unit
cell using editconf (translate one molecule accordingly) and then replicate
that box using genconf to get required confirmation.

Thanks!

[gmx-users] zig-zag stacking

2018-07-31 Thread Nagasree Garapati
Hi All


I am trying to look at the pore space availability and property differences 
between supercells created by stacking unitcells on top of each other and by 
zigzag stacking.

In Gromacs genconf can be used to create a super cell by stacking unit cells on 
top of each other, is there a way to create zig zag stacking?


Thank You
