This task might be approached in a couple of ways:

1. genconf -nbox to define a suitable number of replicate systems.
2. genbox -box -maxsol 500 to define a suitably-sized box and fill it with only 
the desired number of molecules.

genconf will allow you to stack multiples of that 216 box. Or, use 
editconf to adjust the size of a 216 box, and genbox to fill it to get a 
number that suits your fancy. In either case you will need to 
equilibrate before trying to measure velacc, just as with any other 
observable.

Re: [gmx-users] Question about genion, error happens

2009-10-10 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Pan Wu,

You use -pname to specify that the added sodium ions should have the
name 'Na'. Accordingly, at the end of your .top file genion writes a
line under [ System ] specifying the number of 'Na' molecules. But
that requires that 'Na' is defined, which is not the case, given the
error. The correct name for sodium that you have to use depends on the
force field you use. In ions.itp there are definitions for different
force fields, but each may use its own name. Maybe you should've used
'NA' or 'NA+'?

Cheers,

Tsjerk

[gmx-users] Question about genion, error happens

2009-10-10 Thread Pan Wu
Hi gmx users,My system has two protein chain + solvent, and the total
charge is -12. I use "genion" to add 12 Na+ in the *.tpr and *.top file.
However there is some fatal error happens when I try to regenerate the
new tpr file for calculation, it really confuse me.
The process and error msg is below:

1. genion_d -s neg_charge.tpr -nice 0 -np 12 -pname Na -rmin 0.6 -p
system_neg.top -o out.gro -g genion.log
Then the topology file is updated, with some Na added. change name into
system_neu.top

2. copy ions.itp in the current folder, add #include "ions.itp" in
system_neu.top

3. Then I use
  grompp -f for_md.mdp -c out.gro -p system_neu.top -o md_run.tpr
-maxwarn 1000 >& gen_tpr.log
try to get the new md_run.tpr.

The error message is:  "No such moleculetype Na"
I don't know how to revise the ions.itp file, and did not revise that.

Thank you in advance!

Re: [gmx-users] how to calculate the non-bond interaction between solvent and solvent in pure solvent system

2009-10-10 Thread XAvier Periole
I want to calculate the non-bond interaction (LJ+Coulomb) between  
solvent and solvent in pure solvent system.
 After the simulation of my pure solvent system, I calculated the  
interaction between solvent and solvent using the rerun option of  
the "mdrun program".

 First, I set the  energygrps = sol sol  in rerun.mdp file.
 Then, I make the grompp program like this,
 grompp -f rerun.mdp -c conf.gro -n index.ndx -p pure.top -o rerun.tpr
 But this step has a fatal error: Atom 1 in multiple energy Mon.  
groups (1 and 2)

This option can only calculate energies between non-overlapping groups.
That what he message is telling you: one atom can not be part of
more than one group.

If you actually have a simulation of pure solvent the total non-bonded  
energy

of your system seems to be what you are looking for!


 I don't know how to solve the problem and I want to know whether  
this method is effective for calculating the interaction between  
solvent and solvent in pure solvent system.


Any suggestion will be appreciated.

These terms should already be present in the .edr file.  Run g_energy and have a 
look.
