[gmx-users] specific heat calculation using "gmx dos"
Dear all, I am trying to calculate heat capacity of a polymeric system (30k atoms) using gromacs. I tried the classical way from the fluctuation dependent properties using "gmx energy", but the values are not matching experimental values. I want to use "gmx dos" program, but I have some confusions. 1. Does it gives only the quantum corrections in heat capacity, which should be added to the one calculated from 'gmx energy' or Does it gives full heat capacity value including quantum corrections. 2. Should I have to run NVT simulations, run gmx dos, find Cv and the add then calculate Cp, as given in the paper ( J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2012, 8, 61–74), *OR* I can run a NPT simulation and calculate Cp from gmx dos. 3. gmx dos gives the Cp/Cv value in "dos.log" file. but is there any output file to check its convergence. I mean how should I decide, how long the trajectory I should take. 4. Cp can be calculated from the slope of enthalpy vs temp plot (dH/dT) (in a small range of temp), what limitation does this approach have. Thanks in advance. -- Gromacs Users mailing list * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/GMX-Users_List before posting! * Can't post?

[gmx-users] nrexcl value for ions
Dear gromacs users, A very happy new year to all of you. I an trying to simulate LiBr and LiNO3. What will be the value of nrexcl in OPLS itp file for respective cation and anions? I found nrexcl=1 for atomic ions in ions.itp file in gromacs. Again in a tutorial of simulation of Choline Chloride + urea, they have used nrecxl=3 for chloride ion. Here, I am confused about this. Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

Re: [gmx-users] What is the "gen-vel" used for?
I guess I understand what you mean, but could you clarify it further? I usually perform the simulations by the following process: (1) energy minimization (EM); (2) NVT for 1 ns with heavy atom restraints; (3) NPT for 1 ns with heavy atom restrains; (4) production simulation without restraints. To prove repeatability, I think I need to set up several parallel simulations. Could I perform the NPT step for 3 different durations such as 1 ns, 2 ns, 5 ns to get three different velocities at the final frame of the three NPT simulations, and remove the restraints and continue the simulation from these velocities respectively? Thus I will get three production simulations start from different velocities. Or do I need to stop a so-called production simulations (without restraint) at different time points and get three configurations, and repeat the EM, NVT, NPT and production simulation steps for the three configurations respectively to get three independent trajectories?

Again, you don't generate velocities at the outset of a "production" simulation. You're creating a randomized system that needs to be re-equilibrated. Hence, velocities are only ever generated at the outset of the first step of equilibration. Perhaps this is just a discrepancy in terminology, but one cannot justifiably start a "production" simulation (i.e. one in which data are collected) from a totally random state that may not even be stable. -Justin -- == Justin A.

Re: [gmx-users] lifetime of hydrogen bond
Thank you for your suggestion. - Message from David van der Spoel - Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2020 08:28:17 +0100 From: David van der Spoel Reply-To: gmx-us...@gromacs.org Subject: Re: [gmx-users] lifetime of hydrogen bond To: gmx-us...@gromacs.org Den 2020-01-02 kl. 07:47, skrev sp...@iacs.res.in: Dear all I want to calculate the hydrogen bond lifetime of a dynamic hydrogen bond which stays for say 10 ns (as I have saved the trajectory with 10 ps interval). I am trying to calculate the lifetime of this hydrogen bond by gmx hbond command gmx hbond -f traj_nopbc.trr -s md.tpr -n index.ndx -num hbond_G4_N3_131_N3H4.xvg -dist dist_G4_N3_131_N3H4.xvg -ang ang_G4_N3_131_N3H4.xvg -life life_G4_N3_131_N3H4.xvg Its give me a "uninterrupted hydrogen bond lifetime" plot which stays for 200 ps. I cannot understand the meaning of this plot. How to explain this 200 ps lifetime? Thanks sunipa The -life option does not give you a meaningful answer since it is sensitive to small fluctuations. My oldpaper in J. Phys. Chem. B 110 pp. 4393-4398 (2006) explains it in detail. You can rerun without -life and with the -ac flag. -- David van der Spoel, Ph.D., Professor of Biology Head of Department, Cell & Molecular Biology, Uppsala University.
