Hi, all gmx-users,
I am simulating the surfactant on the liquid/liquid interface. After reading a lot of paper, I predefine the different potential function forms for these three parts (surfactant, water, CCl_4 ). For water model, I used the SPC model; for CCl_4 , I used the function form from gromo96; for surfactant, the bond stretching and angle bending potentials are harmonic, and proper dihedrals potential is from Fourier function. I want to know whether the different potential functions combined are suitable? That is to say, is it the rule on the different potential functions combined? I hope for your help. Thanks a lot!

I guess it might work, but you will need to test your parameters carefully. There's no reason to suppose that bits of one forcefield will work well with bits of others. Parameterization is a very tricky business and not for the faint-of-heart or newcomer.
