Re: [gmx-users] NPT simulation stage

2014-04-27 Thread Swetha Srinivasan
Hi Lemkul,

I am trying to simulate guanidium in water. My system contains 198 guanidium 
residues. But when I'm trying to use the grompp command ,I'm facing the problem 
of fudgeQQ, qi ,qj. I don't know what that means. I don't know how to rectify 
the error too. Plus if there are too many solvet molecules, how do I delete it ?

Thanks,

Swetha

 dear justin
 Thank you for your reply.
 My system is about 123,000 atoms and my box is cubic.
 I'm following conditions apply:

 pcoupl   = Parrinello-Rahman
 Pcoupltype   = Isotropic
 tau_p= 0.5
 compressibility  = 4.5e-5
 ref_p= 1.0
 refcoord_scaling = com

 But the average pressure is not good repeatability.

 To fix this problem I did two NPT simulation stage
 The first 100ps by brendsand barostat then 100ps by Parrinello-Rahman
 barostatbut Still not good repeatability. I frequently change tau_p but I did
 not get any results. Increase the NPT simulation time did not solve the 
 problem.
 I strongly need your help
 Thank you sincerely for your kindness

What I was asking for previously were the actual results - i.e. what values of
pressure you achieved.  Please provide the exact g_energy output.

When you increased the time, how long were the new runs?  100 ps is fairly short
for any NPT process.  Some systems may take a few ns to converge, depending on
what their contents are.

 Pressure is probably the most ill-defined quantity in MD simulations.  It can
 fluctuate dramatically.  Without the actual numbers, it's hard to comment, but
 issues related to pressure have been discussed extensively over the list in 
 the
 past and there is useful information in
 http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Pressure.

Hi Lemkul,

 genbox -cp test.gro -cs spc216.gro -box 24 24 24 -o watGND.gro

Actually I want to do a simulation for 7M concentration. So, since the conc of 
3M is already done, I did a small calculation of mass of 3M/avogadro number = 
7M* Mixed mass(Mgnd+Mcl/ratio)*V .From this,I got the volume.From this, the box 
size was 24 24 24 . Thus I used this in the genbox. 

Output configuration contains 1384837 atoms in 461568 residues

FudgeQQ is explained in the manual.  Beyond that, you need to provide more
details.  What is in your topology?  Did you create it yourself, or did you get
it from some other source?  What is the *exact* error message from grompp
(copied and pasted from the terminal)?

As for solvent removal, you'll have to tell us how you added solvent in the
first place.  Presumably this was done with genbox, in which case you can use
-maxsol, but that's often not a good idea because it will leave voids in the
simulation box.  If the box is too large, you'll have to set up an appropriate
one with editconf (or possibly genbox, but I'm still guessing here because you
haven't provided any of your commands).

 I had already used a rhein-water system before. I just edited that and gave 
 my inputs.


I don't really know what that means, but the bottom line is you have an
incorrectly formatted line in the topology.  It's under [pairs], it's function
type 2, and it doesn't specify parameters correctly.  See manual section 5.3.4.
