Hi everyone,
Please I made an error during my simulation:
I ran my simulation in the following way for many steps:
grompp -v -f md.mdp -c ax.pdb -t bx.trr -e dx.edr -o ex.tpr -p fx.top
mdrun -v -s ex.tpr -o gx.trr -c hx.pdb -x ix.xtc -e md.edr -g md.log

But in my em.mdp,
I kept: gen_vel = yes

So is my simulation correct or does it generate velocities each time?


If you're telling grompp to re-generate velocities, then that's what it's going to do; the resulting trajectories will be discontinuous.

I mean, what is meaningful: gen_vel or grompp -t -e ?


If you use -t and -e in conjunction with "gen_vel = yes," grompp will print a note saying that the supplied velocities are ignored and it is generating new ones. Gromacs output tries as hard as it can to help you not make errors :) The proper way to extend a simulation can be found here:

Thank you
