Don't know, but re-interpreting the old velocities at a new time might not be fully integrated with things calculated from the old velocities, such as temperature-coupling quantities. For switching integrators, you will need to re-equilibrate, so you may as well generate new velocities and avoid the problem.
If you want to suggest fixing any possible problem, please file an issue at redmine.gromacs.org Cheers, Mark On Thu, Jun 6, 2013 at 4:38 AM, Sikandar Mashayak <symasha...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi > > I first performed a simulation using leap-frog integrator, which went well > and got the expected results.
