[gmx-users] Geometry-dependent (non-spherically symmetric) potentials

2011-01-11 Thread ms
Hi, While I understand that all non-bonded gmx potential shapes are intended to be spherically symmetric, for a project of mine it would be helpful to be able to have a non-bonded pair potential which is geometry-dependent (that is, depending on the angle between 3 atoms). Has anything -offi

[gmx-users] Tips and tricks to make your own coarse-grained model?

Hi, First of all, I am new to Gromacs and quite new to the MD field (I had a read of the Daan-Frenkel book and played very little with custom CG models - I used to be an experimental guy), so please bear with me if questions happen to be naive. My aim is to re-implement a formerly standalone CG m

[gmx-users] how to mimick explicit hydrogen bonding

Hi, I need to implement a FF which includes directional hydrogen bonding. It seems however, to my understanding, that Gromacs has no simple way to include an explicitly directional contribution. All I can find is that, in standard force fields, h-bond terms are implicitly described by coulombic an
