Not really. MD is chaotic. Small changes in initial conditions lead to different results. > If domain decomposition is the problem, then I would think disre-weighting = > equal shouldn't work either. > I'm stumped... anyone got any ideas? http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Blowing_Up has the usual suggestions - don't use P-R yet, try a smaller time step, make sure your system is close to the restrained regime (or be extra gentle until it is).
