[gmx-users] Atomistic Simulation

2013-12-03 Thread panzu
Hello to everybody, I am new in atomistic simulations and a have some doubts about how to do it. I wanna simulate a mixture of Cyclohexane, Toluene and Dodecane. My questions are, ¿Where do I get the pdb files of these molecules from? and ¿How do I know which force field I should choose in

[gmx-users] Assertion error

Dear Gromacs users, I am using Gromacs in a computer cluster using many processors (currently 228). Sometimes I get the following assertion error: *Assertion `timerq-cursor = current_time' failed at mxm/util/timerq.c:91* This error presents at some time inside of the simulation, every run at a

I've just started doing atomistic simulations over the last few weeks as well and can share what I've learned so far. I have been using 'automated topology builder'. It only uses the gromos 53a6 forcefield so eliminates the choice if you want to use it. ATB generates the pdb and itp files for

It is an interesting question, because how does one generate velocities at 0 K? Random sampling from a Maxwellian distribution with mean zero and zero width :) At the end of the first step all velocities will be scaled to zero. That shouldn't be very unstable. Cheers, Tsjerk -- Gromacs

You shouldn't change any of the code unless you know what you're doing. If you remove lines it will not work as intended. I think you simply need to upgrade your version of Python 2, according to the error message. jbarn...@tulane.edu | from mobile Chetan Mahajan chetanv...@gmail.com wrote:

Below information might be of interest to the Gromacs development/optimization team. What can we derive from the 10% md_run speedup when PCIE3.0 speed increases from 5GT/s-8GT/s? A 60% PCIE speed increase results in a 10% run time reduction. Hence about 10/60=17% of the run time gets spent in
