Hello everybody, I have been starting using Gromacs (3.3.1) recently and I am facing some problems. I am trying to simulate RNA with ffAMBER99, and I decided that a bd simulation would be the most efficient. My problem is maybe a known/stupid one : the temperature used during the simulation is twice the one I asked for with ref_t in my .mdp file. I can see it when runs are over with the option "Temperature" of g_energy, or simply by looking in energy.edr with gmxdump. There must be something wrong going on that I failed to understand.
Here is the relevant (?) paramaters of my .mdp :
constraints = all-bonds
constraint_algorithm = lincs
lincs_order = 8
integrator = bd
dt = 0.01 (or 0.002 or 0.1, I tried both)
bd_fric = 5000 (or 50000)
tcoupl = no
tc-grps = System
tau_t = 0.1 (or 0.01, it should play no role anyway , should it ?)
ref_t = 310.0
pcoupl = no
gen_vel = yes
gen_temp = 310.0
coulomb_type = cutoff
vdwtype = cut-off
rcoulomb = 1.2
rvdw = 1.2
rlist = 1.2
My system is a RNA + ffamber99 tip3p + NaCl. I did previous energy
minimizations
that worked fine. I tried runs with different temperatures but the temperature
of
the stimulation is always twice as big.
If anyone may help...Many thanks !

My 0.02. Based on one of Moshe Bar's OpenMosix papers, Mosix increases
the performance of MPI processes by load balancing. However I would have
to say that this only works for compute bound processes. If there's
going to be lots of I/O between nodes Mosix won't do so well and may
very well degrade performance.
Did you run any benchmarks of NAMD + its parallel (CHARM?)
implementation vs NAMD + CHARM + Mosix? Does it help? Last I checked the
Mosix userland tools and some other key functionality still don't work
for 2.6 linux kernels.

Actually, I have used OpenMosix some time ago in a another life :) All I
remember is that NAMD was performing reasonably well as far as you
didn't ask it to write coordinates every frames. It was handy to
minimize/equilibrate a system or do some small computation like pressure
profile. As far as I remember, I was able to compute something like 0.8
ns/day on 10 proc for a system of 30~20000 atoms.

We have used the free tool Argus Lab for geometry opt of the protein. For
small protein it will work, but u can try it. Use UFF & BFGS options. Did u
checked the Ramachandran plot of your protein?
Subject: Re: [gmx-users] Re: error during the minimization
thanks for your advice Mr. Manoj
I tried the same simulation by taking a structure which was already
minimized by another software Amber. Using that structure as the starting
structure also, i got the same error i mention earlier.
please suggest me something
thanks

Dear all
i want to determine the center of mass of my protein
in the z-dimension.which command in gromacs is useful
for me?
thanks
