hello, i would like to apologise for my hurried attempt to describe my problem earlier. in my hurried attempt i also happened to have attached the wrong topology file. well let me go again and describe what i am tryin to achieve.please do take the patience to look into it. i am a beginner to gromacs and what i am trying to achieve is to see the behaviour of nanosized zirconia particles when sintered. initially to start with i have created a box containin two spheres of 4 nm size separated by equilibrium distance .zirconia has body centered tetragonal structure with four oxygen atoms placed in the tetrahedral voids in a criss cross pattern such that no two oxygen atoms lie on the same space diagonal. i am using buckingham potentials and using the partial ionic model hence the charges -1.35 for oxygen and 2.7 for zirconium. the problem that i am encountering is that when i give a run for smaller particles like a 4 nm i get a system which is completely randomised. i checked back with the literature and the values of forces are right.so where could i be going wrong? please do check my topolgy file and see if i am doing any blunder. ;topology file [ defaults ] ; nbfunc comb-rule gen-pairs fudgeLJ fudgeQQ 2 1 no 1.0 1.0 [ atomtypes ] ;name mass charge ptype c6 c12 OX 15.99940 -1.35 A 2348.3193 0.0547148 51.712e-28 ZR 91.22420 2.70 A 0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000 [ nonbond_params ] ; i j func a b c6 OX OX 2 2348.3193 0.0547148 51.712e-28 ZR OX 2 9.512e+04 0.0376000 0.0000000 ZR ZR 2 0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000 [ moleculetype ] ZR 0 [ atoms ] 1 ZR 1 DP ZR 1 2.7 91.22420 [ moleculetype ] OX 0 [ atoms ] 1 OX 1 DP OX 2 -1.35 15.99940 [ system ] ZIRCONIA [ molecules ] ZR 1032 OX 2064 thanka a lot for your patience
