Re: [gmx-users] Initial velocity

2013-05-13 Thread Brighter Agyemang
Thanks so much for your support,
The point is that, I have this mathematical theory on coarse grain
simulation for which is supposed to resolve the potential existing between
atoms suspended by an angle theta(like the triangle share for two atoms).
To solve for the potential, the theta between these two atoms has to be
resolved first and then with the use of some functions in the
math.h(acos,math.pow,log) I get the final potential. The mathematical model
has been resolved and I have coded everything in C. When I made inquiries
on how to implement it in GROMACS, I learnt that I have to modify the
bondfree.c file in ./src/gmxlib directory.
Theta is found based on the euclidian distance property and some
differentiation afterwards and this theta is then supplied together with
initial coordinates of the two atoms, boltzmann constant, and the mixing
paramter (fine grain + coarse grain) and then the potential is supposed to
be found.
My supervisor seems not to be remembering what he did some years ago with
GROMACS and it is really making life a though thing for me now
I hope this information will be useful, let me know if I still need to
clarify myself more pls.
The whole idea is the determine the potential existing between fine-grain
and coarse-grain multiscalled simulation

Thanks so much

 Dear All,

 Will you please explain how the initial velocity may affect the MD
 results? What the initial velocity really means? How the velocity of the
 atoms in the protein changes in the MD process? What is the reasonable
 scope of the initial velocity? Any suggestions on how to manually input a
 defined initial velocity?

 Cheers,

We use different initial velocities to improve sampling, i.e. to allow the 
trajectory to evolve in different ways.  In the end, in the limit of infinite 
sampling, the trajectory ensemble averages should be the same.



What the initial velocity really means?


Just what it claims to be - the initial (first) velocities of each atom.


How the velocity of the atoms in the protein changes in the MD process?


Please read about MD integration algorithms.


What is the reasonable scope of the initial velocity?


I don't know what this means.


Any suggestions on how to manually input a defined initial velocity?


Provide grompp with an input file that has velocities - .trr, .edr, .gro, .cpt.

These posts are not related to your question.  Reading posts on other topics can 
be very informative and should be augmented by literature and textbook reading.
