Re: [gmx-users] warter freeze into ice when cutoff-scheme=Verlet and coulombtype = cut-off

Hi,

That behaviour might depend on what your starting configuration is, e.g.
what group MOL has frozen coordinates. But cut-off is anyway a ~useless
model for condensed phase of atoms with partial charges, so understanding
the issue hasn't got much value.

 Hi everyone,
  I found that after gromacs version 4.6, when set

 will freeze into ice.  I known that charge-groups are necessary when using
 plain cut-off electrostatics. But I'm surprised that why the waters freeze
 into ice when using plain cut-off electrostatics without charge-groups?
 Could someone explain how it happenes?
