Dear Users and Developers
I am trying to execute md_pull.mdp {given below} on a small molecule
embedded at the core of lipid bilayer. I have tried to modify the
md_pull.mdp from the Tutorial by Justin Lemkul on Umbrella sampling.
I encounter LINCS warning (1000) after about 100-110 ps of the
simulation resulting in termination of mdrun. This occurs when the
small molecule is near the polar heads. I understand the system is
exploding.
I have minimized the system, followed by anneal to 323K then nvt and
npt after which I perform the md_pull. How can I soften the core {as
mentioned in the errors on www.gromacs.org} or any other alternative
is there adding lincs warning to mdp file {I am not aware}
Following is the md_pull.mdp file as modified;
