This isn't surprising. Pressure coupling without explicit solvent doesn't work the way that you are anticipating. You might want to look at what happened to the system using ngmx or VMD to see what went wrong. Unless you need to simulate in a box for some reason, you should turn off PBC as Justin

Scratch what I said last night about pressure coupling - it crashes after ~200K timesteps due to fluctuations in the cell volume. I'm sticking with NVT for now. On 5/31/2011 6:14 PM, Michael Daily wrote: The following mdp file produces a successful dynamics run out to 100K steps / 200 ps. Wh

Thanks for the suggestions. I can see how a smaller dt would probably be the most general approach to use as it should work with just about any reasonable combination of settings. -- Josh On Tue, 2011-05-31 at 11:02 +1000, Mark Abraham wrote: > On 31/05/2011 10:54 AM, Justin A. Lemkul wrote: > >

The following mdp file produces a successful dynamics run out to 100K steps / 200 ps. What I discovered is this: Using the md integrator, it is necessary to turn off pressure coupling. However, pressure coupling works with sd (Langevin) integrator. Mike --- ; title and include files title

Thanks for the recommendations everyone. I tried all of the mdp changes recommended by Justin (increase rlist, rvdw, etc to 2.0; change T-coupling to v-scale, and eliminate P-coupling). When I increased the distance cutoffs, it ran about 30 ps then crashed instead of crashing immediately. On
