So you don't have a single cluster of atoms... so as trjconv -h notes, using -pbc cluster isn't very useful when you don't have a cluster of atoms. All my advice of two days ago on this point still applies. Is it right if my criterion be view in VMD and is my micelle clustering correct? It's correct if it looks the way you want it to. 2- If I select surfactants for clustering group and system for output group in step (a) and I select system for output group in step (c), command g_clustsize doesn't work correct, consequently, I did under step and made a .xtc file only for surfactants: i- trjconv -f md.trr -o md-surfactant.xtc -n index.ndx Then I did steps a, b and c for md-surfactant.xtc and in all of steps I selected surfactants for clustering and output group. Next, I did g_clustsize and it answered me correct. May I know that my way is correct, please? 3- By upper way I have 2 micelles that I got index.ndx file for cluster with maximum size by g_clustsize (maxcluster.ndx). May I know how can I use from this for next calculation if I want consider only maximum cluster with all of system (water and ion) in calculations (for example rdf, gyration and etc)? Again I think you are not using the word cluster in the sense the GROMACS tools are. Each micelle could be a cluster of atoms, or the pair of micelles could be a cluster of micelles. How to use the tools will differ according to what you are trying to calculate on what kind of cluster. Anyway, the atom numbers do not change with the configuration of the atoms, so the same index file group identifies the surfactant atoms in each frame. To identify the *time* of the configuration with the largest diameter, something like g_mindist -max might serve. However you may need to resolve your PBC issue first.

See the following: http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors#Atom_index_n_in_position_restraints_out_of_bounds Also note that PRODRG topologies are generally unreliable and require careful reparameterization.

Hi Sara, The problem is that your micelle is formed at the end of the trajectory. To get what you want, you need to mirror the trajectory, follow the procedure you followed, and mirror the resulting trajectory.

Re: [gmx-users] Intel composer vs. Intel Studio
What performance are you getting that you want to improve more? Here's a datapoint from the last simulation I ran: Currently running gromacs 4.5.4 built with icc+fftw+openmpi on infiniband qdr and I get about 9.7ns/day on 64 PP nodes with 4 PME nodes (68 total 2.66ghz X5650) on my 99113 atom system in single precision I find that it is more important to optimize your PP/PME allocation than microoptimizing the code... I also find that at some point above 232 nodes (I don't remember what the exact number is), mdrun will complain about the overhead it takes to communicate energies if am having it communicate energies every 5 steps; which is a reflection on thea limitation of the infrastructure than the code too.

Re: [gmx-users] -pbc nojump
Hi Sara, Please keep discussions on the list. I'm not your private tutor. Whether you can do your analysis depends on the analysis you want to do. But if your aim is analyzing the formation of the micelle, you're probably better of reversing the trajectory. 1- trjconv -f md.trr -o md1.xtc -n index.ndx -pbc whole -s md.tpr This makes molecules whole, which is fine. Clustering should make molecules whole too, though, making this step redundant. 2- trjconv -f md1.xtc -s md.tpr -o cluster1.gro -e 60 -pbc cluster Fine, you get a cluster 3- trjconv -f cluster1.gro -s md.tpr -dump 150 -o cluster2.gro This does nothing special. Just because you have a reference clustered doesn't mean the output frame will turn out clustered. 4- grompp -f md.mdp -c cluster2.gro -o cluster1.tpr -n index.ndx 5- trjconv -f cluster1.gro -o cluster1.xtc -s cluster1.tpr -pbc nojump This screws up everything. You can only use -pbc nojump with a reference structure that is sufficiently close to the first frame of the trajectory. Your reference is a snapshot at t=600 ns. 6- trjconv -f cluster1.xtc -s cluster1.tpr -pbc mol -ur compact -center -o cluster3.xtc This would probably be fine if the trajectory was okay there.

It gives 0.985 for SPC at 25 C with different setup... perhaps 0.978 is not so bad? Indeed. You should find the paper in which the parameterization of SPC was reported, and seek to reproduce the density reported there with a similar model physics. In general, a water model was probably parameterized to reproduce a set of observables reasonably well, and it does none of them perfectly. In practice, around 0.98 is normal enough in my recollection. Mark On Wed, Dec 28, 2011 at 9:34 AM, Theodora García theodoraaagar...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you very much for your advice...

As you will see in the template code's desc variable, the original version needs to be told about several groups of atoms for its operation. Apparently you haven't changed that, so it prompts the user to get those groups. Of course, if you don't use them, then you can just enter any old selection (see the examples it suggests exist).
