Hi,
I want to run a NPT run,could I put some groups into position restraint, or make them frozened ?
    I find it is OK in NVT ensemble. But I am not sure whether it is proper.

Frozen groups cannot have their coordinates scaled by pressure coupling. I believe this can lead to spurious contributions to the virial and pressure, so it is generally recommended that NPT not be combined with frozen groups.

    Thanks!
