Thanks for the clarification. Forgot that virtual sites have no mass. With this info it is clear why a setup with 2 'normal' and one dummy atom would not work. Am 26.07.2012 01:42, schrieb gmx-users-requ...@gromacs.org: On 26/07/2012 4:12 AM, Broadbent, Richard wrote: >Virtual sites are by d

How to choose the positions of the dummy atoms while constraining the angle for a linear triatomic molecule? The topology for a such molecule ( af for example CO2 ) is as follows [ moleculetype ] ; Namenrexcl CO2 2 [ atoms ] ; nr type resnr residue atom cgnr charg
