Hey, I want to pull the diamonds with more or less exactly the speed I give for the pulling without the massive noise (in gromacs 3.3 this worked using afm type pulling, after some equilibration the slabs settled to an almost constant pull speed without soo much fluctuation using the same paramete

Hi > > Have you tested the equipartitioning per atom? This must be correct. We have done per atom (here of course only ekin is available). Here the average ekin parallel to the interface deviates from the ekin perpendicular to the interface (this is the data in the zip file of the old mail). You c

Hi, I have done exactly what you suggest in your first paragraph, seperating translation and rotation for each water molecule. If you want I can send you the new ekin_vs_t_and_erot_vs_t.dat where you can see that the ekin is actually equidistributed but the erot isn't! So in this rigid body persp
