Hey Ali, 1) You usually can't use PR for equilibration - it'll oscillate out of control and blow up. What I usually do is use Berendsen for equilibration, and PR for the production run. 2) What do you mean exactly? The numbers mean the same, but I'm not sure of any physical effect as a result

Hi, you'd best redirect this question to the Martini forum (cgmartini.nl), since this is more of a forcefield question than a Gromacs question. To answer your question: if at all possible, stick to the 36 Martini bead types available, and look at the tutorials on the Martini webpage. There's

Hi Srinivas, You're probably better off asking this on the Martini forum (cgmartini.nl). What I would suggest for now (as a quick fix) is to define bash aliases for grompp and mdrun, and have them point to gmx grompp and gmx mdrun respectively. There might be more subtle effects as well though.

As a note to Alex (and the rest of the list), the coarse-grained Martini forcefield is usually run with timesteps between 20-40 fs. 15fs is already rather low. I do agree that longer equilibration at low timestep (5 or 10) might help. Alternatively, Do you think a semiisotropic pressure coupling

Hi Guille, I'm not an expert on this, but it'll also depend on what kind of MD simulations you want to run. Coarse-grained forcefields, for example, don't benefit much from a GPU. So what kind of simulations do you have in mind? Atomistic? QM/MM? How many particles? ...? Peter On 02-12-16

Hi, please see http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Thermostats The number of molecule types (what you call groups?) in your .top file are not relevant for the number of tc groups you make. You need to make sure your system obeys a boltzmann distribution (or maxwell? I'm not sure).
