Re: [gmx-users] md simulation steps
No :-) It depends what you are trying to observe; generally that's statistical in nature and you thus need to make a large number of independent post-equilibration observations from a converged trajectory. Doing that is generally quite difficult - you should be guided by what previous people have done in similar work.

[gmx-users] MD exit condition
Hello Gromacs users, I am using Gromacs 4.6.5 Is there a way to set an exit condition during a simulation? I am interested in terminating dynamics when two groups are separated by a certain distance. If it is not possible to set an exit condition, I suspect I can post process the trajectory with trjconv using the -exec flag and/or the -trunc flag: 1.) The manual states that the -exec flag will Execute a command for every output frame with the frame number as argument. What kinds of commands I can pass to this flag? 2.) If the -exec is not useful, I plan to analyse the the output of g_dist to find the the time t when two groups exceed my distance criterion and run trjconv -trunc t to crop the trajectory appropriately. Is there a better way? Best, Eric -- Gromacs Users mailing list * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/GMX-Users_List before posting! * Can't post?

Re: [gmx-users] Cannot find gmx_mpi when installing gromacs 5.0
Dear Mark, Thank you for your response. But I can install gromacs 4.6.5 successfully with the same permission. I will still contact the administrator of the cluster. Do you have idea what permissions I should ask them for if I need to install 5.0? Any files or directories, or any permissions to execute files? I don't think it is good for gromacs installation to access some parts needing higher permissions. After all, most of users who need to install gromacs onto cluster are not administrators.

[gmx-users] Positive Potential Energy.
Hello everyone. I am still fairly new to gromcs but I have researched this well. I am getting a positive potential energy (my bond energy is always positive) no matter how long I run my simulation. I also get this when doing minimizations. Even just one molecule set at know minimum conformation. I am running in vacuo with no pbc. I have read on the mail list that in vacuo can produce this? This doesn’t make sense as the molecule should fly apart with always positive PE. I have tried gromos ff and opsla ff. Both do this. A colleague of mine also gets this with his simulations although he reports negative potential when solvated. Any help would be appreciated or any explanation on how to interpret gromacs output on this. I would question gromacs’ abilities if it cannot give a reasonable potential energy for a simple system.

[gmx-users] Surface tension for membrane simulation
Hi all, I have a question of surface tension in membrane simulation. I found that in equilibration and production step, the pressure set up for membrane simulation is below: ; Pressure coupling is on pcoupl = Parrinello-Rahman ; Pressure coupling on in NPT pcoupltype = semiisotropic ; uniform scaling of x-y box vectors, independent z tau_p = 2.0 ; time constant, in ps ref_p = 1.0 1.0 ; reference pressure, x-y, z (in bar) compressibility = 4.5e-5 4.5e-5 ; isothermal compressibility, bar^-1 I would like to know, during these steps, do we have constant pressure or constant surface tension? Moreover, different membrane have different surface tension, do we need to change and write it in the mdp file (ref_p value?) to run the simulation? Thanks a lot for your assistance!

Re: [gmx-users] Positive Potential Energy.
Hey Daniel :) This doesn’t make sense as the molecule should fly apart with always positive PE. You need a force to make things fly apart, but the force has little to do with the absolute PE. It's the gradients that do it. And as Justin points out, your system can choose between positive PE and even more positive PE. Cheers, Tsjerk -- Tsjerk A.

[gmx-users] GPU Acceleration in case of Implicit Solvent Simulations
Dear all, Can we use periodic boundary conditions in case of implicit solvent simulations? If so, why? Also, can implicit solvent model in gromacs in any version (till 5.0) be implemented in more than 2 processors or can it at least use GPU acceleration provided by gromacs? I have tried using pbc=no and group cut-off scheme in gpu based gromacs V5.0, but there is a warning which says GPU is disabled because it effectively works only with verlet cut-off scheme and verlet cut-off scheme requires pbc=xyz or xy. Also tried implementing in gromacs version 4.5.5 using openMM after following the installation instructions in the following link, ( http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Installation_Instructions_4.5/GROMACS-OpenMM) and here again there is no luck as we dont have the compatible hardware.

[gmx-users] g_select syntax
Hi Everyone, I am recently puzzled by the syntax and behaviour of g_select. I want to obtain the residue index list of LIPID whose center of mass is within 1.0 nm of the surface of protein. In my case, each LIPID molecule consists of only one residue. I wrote the selection.dat as follows, and set -selrpos to atom and -seltype to res_com. Here I think Protein is the reference group, so -selrpos should be atom because I care about the distance to its surface. LIPID is the analysis group and I care about their individual center of mass. So -seltype should be res_com. selection.dat: resname LIPID and within 1.0 of group Protein; g_select -sf selection.dat -f traj.trr -s traj.tpr -n system.ndx -oi index.dat -seltype res_com -selrpos atom However I tried another selection. This time instead of retrieving the residue index, I tried to retrieve the index of a key atom of the LIPID molecule. selection.dat: rdist = res_com within 1.0 of group Protein; group_C15 = (resname LIPID) and (rdist) and (name C15); group_C15; g_select -sf selection.dat -f traj.trr -s traj.tpr -n system.ndx -oi index.dat -seltype atom -selrpos atom I thought these two selections should give the same number of indices per frame, as the second selection merely retrieve the atom indices of the corresponding key atoms in the LIPID molecules selected by the first selection. However the first selection gives significantly more indices than the second selection does. I guess my understanding of g_select syntax might be flawed. Please point out my misunderstanding.
