[gmx-users] service broken?
Hello: I am trying to download the latest CHARMM forcefield for Gromacs from: http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/charmm_ff.shtml However, I cannot connect to it in the last 10 days. Does anybody have any idea what's happening? thanks a lot Albert -- Gromacs Users mailing list * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/GMX-Users_List before posting! * Can't post?

If you set the reference temperature to a negative value, the barostat would tend to increase the box volume such that the pressue measured in the box drops to the negative reference value. Try a positive reference pressure. -0.2 is a really small pressure, much smaller in absolute value than the typical fluctuations in NPT. Is this value sensible? What pressures would you expect experimentally to comprepress your box? How dense is your box? Do you have a dense liquid or a low density gas? Vacuum? Are you trying to compress your box (in the z-direction) so the box height is adequate in order to reproduce some density? In this case you are running a pre-equilibration and maybe the berendsen barostat would give you better results (converge faster, flucutuate less). All depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

Could you please tell me how I can perform Hamiltonian replica exchange simulations in Gromacs version 5.0.4 without using PLUMED?

[gmx-users] Umbrella sampling and dividing the forces into mean force + friction force + random force
Dear gromacs users, I would like ask a question about the force of umbrella sampling. I did umbrella sampling by pulling a water molecule from gas phase to organic coated bulk water. I estimated the free energy profile on this reaction coordinate. In order to calculate the random force-force auto-correlation I need to extract the random force on pulled molecule. The force along a reaction coordinate consists of three terms, (i) the mean force as the derivative of the free energy surface, (ii) friction, and (iii) random force. I used gromacs tool g_traj to extract the force on pulled molecule however I do not know how to get the random (iii) force out of it. I would greatly appreciate it if you kindly give me an advise about a way to extract random forces from the overall forces?
