Hie, Many thanks for your reply.
Yes I have used semi-isotropic coupling. Another doubt is why only a value of 4.5e-5? I have used PME and have mentioned rcoulomb in the .mdp file too, which as is pointed out by you, has no meaning!! But does this mean that my mdp file is wrong? Because if PME does not use rcoulomb it shud simply ignore the value. Actually I do not want to use twin range cutoff. So, I have given rvdw = rlist. Is this alright? Portion of my mdp file looks like this: ; Electrostatics coulombtype = PME fourier_nx = 6.4 fourier_ny = 5.0 fourier_nz = 8.1 pme_order = 4 rcoulomb = 1.5 rvdw = 1.5 Also since I have not specified "vdwtype" in the mdp file, so it automatically takes Cut-off. regards, Pri... --- Martin Höfling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Am Mittwoch, 20.
