simulation.

So you used g_dist to determine the distances with the setup shown below, but did you correct for PBC effects? Is there a systematic increase in the distance between the two particles, or does it oscillate?

Hello
I am trying to constraints of a bond. I checked the distance using
g_dist, distance changes from 3.5 A to ~ 8.0A. Can anyone tell why it
changes. Here I have pasted mdp file and itp file.

Maybe there's a bug in the interpretation of the constraints?  The
combination of "constraints = none" + [constraints] directive should
constrain the bond. Have you tried simply defining a [bonds] directive and
using "constraints = all-bonds"?
