Thank you very much for the reply. I tried to send this question few days ago and they said that I'm not allowed to post there. (The edition of the replica exchange shouldn't be complicated.) Do you have any tips regarding what I should do?
Thanks in advance, Best regards, Asaf_ _______________________________________ From: gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org [gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org] on behalf of Mark Abraham [mark.abra...@anu.edu.au] Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2012 5:06 PM To: Discussion list for GROMACS users Subject: Re: [gmx-users] Editing the functions of amber On 23/03/2012 1:59 AM, Asaf Farhi wrote: > Dear Matt > > Thank you very much for the reply. > About 1 - it's cutoff in the energy, meaning that from a certain energy you > will get this energy. > Can this be done with the table lookups? Yes, any potential that is a function of distance between pairs can be done. See manual 6.7.2. Of course, plain cut-offs can be done without tables since about 1976... > Are you willing to cooperate with us on 2? I don't have time for new projects, but a post to gmx-developers may elicit feedback on feasibility.
