Hi,
Sorry fot no answering accurately.
Here is new insight for understanding my problem.
In fact, even simulations of pure water (tip4p and tip4p_ew) don't work !
And those simulations crash with a strange periodic pattern : still using
g_msd, I observe
on the msd plot sudden jumps that occur exactly every 10.000 ps ! By "jump" I
mean a violent
increase of the slope of the curve that lasts a short time, which is exactly
0.1 ps each time in my case. The curve is linear with the correct diffusion
constant otherwise. I observe such jumps between 10.0 and 10.1 ps, 20 and 20.1
ps 30 and 30.1 ps, and so on, and each time the jumps have a higher magnitude
than the previous one, till the simulation crashes.
I don't see anything in my parameters that could explain such a periodicity of
10.000 ps. I tried to half the timestep, and it halved the duration of the
jump, which thus became 0.05, but it didn't changed the periodicity of 10 ps.
Changing tau_t had no consequence.
Here are again my parameters for water simulation :
constraints = all-bonds
dt = 0.002
I think you should either use
- constraints = h-bonds, dt = 0.002
or
- constraints = all-bonds, dt = 0.004
but not a combination of both.
Constraining all-bonds is *merely only* for getting a bigger time step
for md, but for regular simulations, i would definitely only constrain
h-bonds and use dt=0.002.
Cheers,
Stéphane
