I have a system with 128 water molecules and a ion pair of ionic liquids i.e. one cation and one anion. the reaction corrdination is the distance between cation and anion. Initial distance between cation-anion is 0.8 nm. I have pasted some part of md file
; Pull code pull = umbrella pull_geometry = distance pull_dim = Y Y Y pull_start = NO ; define initial COM distance > 0 ;reftype = com pull_ngroups = 1 pull_group0 = EMI pull_group1 = ETS pull_init1 = 0.0 pull_rate1 = 0.01 ; 0.01 nm per ps = 10 nm per ns pull_k1 = 1000 ; kJ mol^-1 nm^-2 I run the simulation for 2ns then I run g_wham. I more interested in structure where caion and anion are close ~0.4 nm. After ploting PMF I found that I have -ve value of z. NIlesh On Wed, December 29, 2010 12:51 pm, Justin A.
