Hi all,
At the end of the minimisation I obtained potential energy value approximately -40,000 and I see the following warning Stepsize too small, or no change in energy.Converged to machine precision, but not to the requested precision Fmax < 10


Please see the following:

As far as I know for succesful minimisation potential energy must be between -100,000 and -1,000,000.

Potential energy is dependent upon system size and the nature of the interactions therein. You should not presuppose a specific value or range thereof.

My em.mdp file as follows

integrator= steep
emstep=0.1
nsteps=10000000
nstlist=10
rlist=1.0
coulombtype=pme
rcoulomb=1.0
vdw-type=cut-off
rvdw=1.0
nstenergy=10

My minimisation stops at approximately 19,000 th step.
Is my minimisation acceptable?If no, how can I correct it?

best wishes
Mustafa
