Re: [gmx-users] Martini simulation problem in recentering trajectory so that the bilayer is at the center

2009-11-06 Thread maria goranovic
So lets say that I delete the first frame from the trajectory in which some atoms might have been outside the box. Everything should be within the box once the simulation starts (from the second frame onwards)? So the procedure should work if the reference structure is the second frame? I have

Lets make it clear. I can not tell you if the atoms in the second frame are in the box or not! You have to visualize it! Honestly it is not in the first frame I can not see how it would in the second! You have to build a reference structure that has the bilayer in one piece, then the

For quite a long time I had the feeling that trjconv doesn't resolve all situations. Following the very recent discussion between Roland Schutz and Tsjerk, I'm not sure there is an immediate solution. Ad hoc approaches such as preparation of tpr files from intermediate snapshots were useful for me

Hi Berk, Shorter tau_p? I thought you suggested 5.0 or 10.0 ps ? On Wed, Sep 2, 2009 at 5:28 PM, Berk Hess g...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi, I also just recalled that we have a bug report open since two years already about drift of the COM: http://bugzilla.gromacs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165 But

I meant 3 instead of 30 ps. I would say 1 ps is too short for systems with a phase with large molecules___ gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at

I am not sure how to fix the trajectory that has drifted ... But if your bilayer drifts even if you use a removal of the COM for the water and bilayer separately that means there is problem in the code! And this should be fixed. XAvier. On Sep 2, 2009, at 3:36 PM, maria goranovic wrote:

Oh dear. That is not good. the missing decimal point in tau_p it is a typo all right. but it seems i have used it in the simulations too. thank you for noticing, Xavier. that forces redoing a lot of simulations. that said, it should still not impact the center of mass removal anyway? -maria

It might actually affect the center of mass motion removal, because you would be scaling your system with 1 +- 1 bit at every step. This could produce consistent rounding in one direction in single precision, causing the system to move in one direction. This is something we should check in

Hi, I also just recalled that we have a bug report open since two years already about drift of the COM: http://bugzilla.gromacs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165 But in that case double precision did not change anything, so that does not seem to be a precision issue. Here tau_p was 1 ps, but up till now
