I finally managed to cap it with hydrogen and I don't get any errors now. It seems I had a wrong bond-length at the beginning. Thanks guys for your your help :) George Robert Johnson wrote: Do you want to simulate an infinite nanotube or a finite one? Bob On 3/28/07, George Abadir <[EMAIL PR

There is no C1 and C2 atom in the input PDB file, and the topology file is not generated because x2top doesn't generate a topology because of the errors. I don't understand what C (1) and C (2) means but it is not C1 and C2; I mean not two different types of atoms. The PDB file is generated sim

When using x2top with a specific force field, things are assumed about the connectivity of the molecule. The terminal carbon atoms of your NT will only be bonded to, at most, 2 other carbons. In your case, it looks like they are only bonded to one. When x2top tries to find the forcefield associate

Hi, Actually, I believe that only one force field (ffgmx) currently has an n2t file, at least as recently as 3.3.1. I would try running a find or locate command to see if you even have the n2t files to begin with. I also believe I read earlier on the mailing list that the CVS branch has some im
