[gmx-users] Triclinic box is too skewed

2020-04-18 Thread Jun Zhou
Hi all, I apply a deform at the xy direction of the box, the rate is 0.01 nm/ps but I met this error : Warning: Triclinic box is too skewed. Box (3x3): Box[0]={ 1.06717e+01, 0.0e+00, 0.0e+00} Box[1]={ 5.34312e+00, 1.06717e+01, 0.0e+00}

[gmx-users] about correct methodology to run MD of small molecule in gromacs

2020-04-18 Thread lazaro monteserin
Dear Gromacs users, As I have referred before I am simulating small molecules (nucleosides) (around 33 atoms) in vacuum in Gromacs. When I do the simulations at the end I want to select the most stable structure from the trajectory for the next steps. What would be the best methodology to use to

Re: [gmx-users] Question about Mean Square Displacement (MSD)

2020-04-18 Thread Kevin Boyd
What are you trying to calculate MSD for? I doubt that would be sufficient sampling to calculate the diffusion coefficient of anything except maybe water. For lipids, you don't start getting accurate readings until you reach a **lag** time of 10 ns, and you need 100s of ns of data to get a good

Thanks, Kevin, I am looking for the MSD vs lag plot. I use the saved frames that specified in mdp file. Is that the problem? I saved positions every 10 ps for a 6000 ps simulation. should I lower this or is there another way for using more trajectories? On Sun, 19 Apr 2020 at 00:10, Kevin Boyd

Re: [gmx-users] Question about Mean Square Displacement (MSD)

2020-04-18 Thread Kevin Boyd
Hi, Are you talking about the reported diffusion coefficient or the MSD vs lag plot? You should be very careful about where you fit. By default, Gromacs calculates MSDs at much longer lag times than you typically have good data for. Use the -beginfit and -endfit options to restrict the fit to the

Unless you give you give details how you calculate the MSD it will not be possible to help. Are you using unwrapped co-ordinates in your calculations for MSD? Arun On Sat, Apr 18, 2020 at 7:33 PM Sina Omrani wrote: > Hi, > I am trying to post-processing my results and calculate MSD (mean

[gmx-users] Question about Mean Square Displacement (MSD)

2020-04-18 Thread Sina Omrani
Hi, I am trying to post-processing my results and calculate MSD (mean square displacement) but my answer is different from the MSD value that GROMACS calculated. I use trjconv command and use the output .gro file. I tried to understand the GROMACS code but I am not a good programmer. Is there any

[gmx-users] Artifact in pull-pbc-ref-prev-step-com

Dear all, To generate the initial configurations for umbrella sampling, I conducted a simple pulling simulation by which a single-small molecule (mol_A) is being dragged along -Z from water into the body of a thin film. Since the thin film is large I used *"pull-pbc-ref-prev-step-com = yes" and

Dear gmx users, I would like to ask whether it is possible to install GROMACS on iPad as well? Obviously I am not trying to run any simulations on it, but to be able to generate the run files and to transfer them to a cluster. Does it work the same way you'll have it on any other MacOS? Of

Hi, No, some kind of breakage, e.g. a filesystem disappeared, or a file transfer was incomplete or the file was edited with some inappropriate tool. Mark On Sat, 18 Apr 2020 at 11:46, Mijiddorj B wrote: > Dear Justin, > > Thank you very much for your reply. I see. However, I have one more >

[gmx-users] Regarding use of harmonic wall model

Hello everyone, I want to create a gap between the first and last strand of a beta barrel so that I can put a new strand in between. So, I have generated an input file using charmm-gui and using its gromacs production file (production.mdp) to run the simulation. I want to use a harmonic wall
