Dear gromacs users My system contains 3 components: DOPC & cholesterol lipids + drug + water molecules.
In minimization step, when I use grompp -f em.mdp -c system.gro -p topol.top -o em.tpr, I encountered with following note and warning: WARNING 1 [file em.mdp]: The sum of the two largest charge group radii (6.940482) is larger than rlist (1.200000) Calculating fourier grid dimensions for X Y Z Using a fourier grid of 72x72x72, spacing 0.111 0.120 0.116 Estimate for the relative computational load of the PME mesh part: 0.62 NOTE 1 [file em.mdp]: The optimal PME mesh load for parallel simulations is below 0.5 and for highly parallel simulations between 0.25 and 0.33, for higher performance, increase the cut-off and the PME grid spacing ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My em.mdp file is as follows: ; em.mdp - used as input into grompp to generate em.tpr ; Parameters describing what to do, when to stop and what to save integrator = steep ; Algorithm (steep = steepest descent minimization) emtol = 1000.0 ; Stop minimization when the maximum force < 1000.0 kJ/mol/nm emstep = 0.01 ; Energy step size nsteps = 50000 ; Maximum number of (minimization) steps to perform ; Parameters describing how to find the neighbors of each atom nstlist = 1 ; Frequency to update the neighbor list and long range forces ns_type = grid ; Method to determine neighbor list (simple, grid) rlist = 1.2 ; Cut-off for making neighbor list (short range forces) coulombtype = PME ; Treatment of long range electrostatic interactions rcoulomb = 1.2 ; Short-range electrostatic cut-off rvdw = 1.2 ; Short-range Van der Waals cut-off pbc = xyz ; Periodic Boundary Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I dont like to use -maxwarn option. How to modify parameters in em.mdp file to resolve note an warning. Any help will highly appreciated.
