So I used mindist for a certain group of molecules which is surrounded by water. I got plot number of contacts versuc sumulation time. According to what I see in a distance < 0.6nm at certain frame there are on average 150 contacts.

Actually how the programm calculates the number of contacts, if someone knows what is a creteria that a certain contact is formed?
Is is a certain distance.


Exactly as the title of the output says, a contact exists if any two atoms of the chosen index groups are within 0.6 nm. You can change the distance with g_mindist -d.

        g_mindist -on (with suitable index groups) should also do the trick.

            with g_hbond at the moment. Version 4.0.x seem to work better.

                    Dear Gromacs Users,

                    I would like to know if there is in gromacs an
                    option how to calculate how many contacts has a
                    certain atom i(n a molecules of interest) with water
                    during the whole MD simulations (or at each step of MD).
                    Please could you advice me on this?

                    best,
                    Olga
