Dear gmx users, my apologies for the previous post. I will try to rephrase my problem.
Is it possible to introduce a plane in a particular direction, for example in z direction, where molecules interact with it only based on the perpendicular distance between the molecules and the plane? Is it also possible to specify the user defined potential for interaction between the plane and molecules? The idea is to simulate a surface, for example a graphite surface, but rather than using a detailed atomistic model for it, I would like to represent it by using a plane with some interaction potentials.
