RE: [gmx-users] equilibration of the simulated systems

2013-05-07 Thread Dallas Warren
That really depends on what property it is that you are interested in 
observing.  You need to observe the dynamics of the property of interest, see 
over what time frames it changes, then ensure that you simulation time is 
enough to cover it equilibrating or changing.

yes.
you can use g_energy to plot what you need (T, density or whatever) and
decide if it is acceptable or not.
In the latter case you simply have to extend your run (see
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Extending_Simulations)

[gmx-users] equilibration of the simulated systems

2013-05-07 Thread Za Pour
 Dear gmx users
would you please tell me how I can be sure that my simulation time is long
enough? is it appropriate way to use g_energy program and calculate total 
energy ?
 thank you
