Hi Lin, Not really surprising that water, even SPC, evaporates at 498K and 1 bar, right? (Assuming you performed the simulation at 1 bar). The expansion of the system with NVT seems unlikely, as the volume is fixed. If it really expands, you have pressure coupling turned on, and should double

Yes, multiple type 1 dihedrals for use with AMBER and CHARMM forcefields can be implemented, either as successive [dihedraltypes] of type 9 (since GROMACS 4.0, IIRC) or as multiple [dihedrals] of type 1 (since ages). Mark - Original Message - From: Amin Arabbagheri amin_a...@yahoo.com

Hi, With wall_r_linpot your wall potential is linear from 1 nm downwards. Since the LJ force is negative at 1 nm, your atoms are attracted to the walls. But why not simply use two interfaces? You get double the sampling for free and you do not have to bother with complicated wall setups. Berk

Well, it seems that any double precision energy file can not be read by 4.5.1 or 4.5.2 code. This is such a serious issue that we should bring out 4.5.3 within a week. If you only need the box, g_traj can produce that. If you need other energies you can use a 4.5.1 g_energy for the moment.
