Subject: [gmx-users] pullf.xvg

Could someone please tell me what exactly is printed in the pullf.xvg
file from an umbrella sampling simulation?
Is it the total force acting the COM of the pull group - i.e. force from
regular potential plus the umbrella force  or just the unbiased force?

Krzysztof Kuczera



Each window in umbrella sampling simulation gives you the biased potential 
which is the harmonic potential. The wham allows you to combine all windows by 
applying weights and calculating the unbiased potential which requires 
calculation of the free enerrgy associated with introducing the harmonic 
pontial (biased). Please, search literature to see equations.
