Hello gmx users! As announced in my previous message at the beginning of the week, we will be activating the new discussion forum today. At the same time, the mailing list will move to read-only mode, so please don't be surprised when it is no longer possible to submit new messages to it.

[gmx-users] Question about parameters for simulation annealing

Dear Gromacs users, I am trying to run a simulation annealing using Gromacs of a small molecule. Does anybody knows if there is a protocol to set up the annealing parameters for Gromacs; initial temperature, final temperature, annealing-npoints, annealing-ntimes and the annealing-temp? My total

[gmx-users] Negative part of the reaction coordinate in PMF

Dear all, In a PMF simulation using WHAM, the windows are somehow that the reaction coordinate (RC = COM_group1 COM_group2) should have both positive and negative parts along Z direction, e.g COM_group1 locates in the middle of the reaction coordinate more or less. However, what the WHAM

Hello Ekatherina, I did not reach a point in my simulations where I have used freeze command, but I think for your case, can't you put a position constraint on your quartz layer. In that case, you just have to create an index file having quartz in the group and then you can put postion restraints
