[gmx-users] lipid.itp file CHARMM FF

2012-09-15 Thread Shima Arasteh
Hi all,

Does anybody know where can I get the lipid.itp file defined by CHARMM ? 
I have the popc.itp and popc.pdb files generated by CHARMM36. But what about 
the lipid.itp file?

Thanks for your suggestions in advance.



Sincerely,
Shima

Re: [gmx-users] Resuming of calculation from last *.cpt

2012-09-15 Thread James Starlight
Justin,

In accordance to the manual I've re-launched my simulation by the command
mpiexec -np 48 mdrun_mpi.openmpi -v -s md_initial  -cpi md_initial  -append


where md_initial is the name of the files from the run which I want to continue.

As the result this produce new files with the default names traj.trr
ener.edr etc. In those files the trajectory have been calculated from
the last frame of the md_initial.cpt file. So as the result I've
obtain again 2 set of output files ( from old and new runs). IS it
possible to continue the calculations and save output within the
existing files (md_initial) without creation of new ones ?

 I've used


 grompp -f md_sd.mdp -c start.gro -t incomplete.cpt -p topol.top -o
 incomplete.tpr
 mpiexec -np 48 mdrun_mpi.openmpi -v -deffnm incomplete -append

 where incomplete.cpt was checkpoint from previous run and -o
 incomplete.tpr was the name for new trajectory (in that case its equal
 to the name of old trajectory )

 that produce new .trr .edr and other files and back up old ( e.g crete
 #incomplete.trr etc) ones instead of continuation of the existing (
 incomplete ) trajectory

 What I've done wrong?


 You shouldn't be invoking grompp at all.

The names of the files produced depend on what is stored in the .cpt file. 
mdrun will only append to files with those names.  I don't have a clear picture 
of what you've done so it's impossible to say whether or not this is the 
expected outcome, but the checkpointing feature is very robust so I suspect it 
is.  Were all of  your file names originally called md_initial?  If you've 
re-named them, the appending will fail for that very reason.

Jusin,

yes, the initial files were named as the md_initial

the simulation was resumed correctly but all output data was saved
into new set of files with the default names. In my case I want that
the resummed simulation data will write to the existing (md_initial)
files without creation of new trajectory and other files.

That means mdrun expects your files to be named md_init not md_initial as 
you said they were named.  It seems that file naming has gotten confused 
somewhere along the way.  You can always, of course, choose -noappend and simply 
concatenate later.

Appending to an old run requires that all the filenames are identical 
between the two runs. It looks to me like your .log file was called 
md_init.log originally. You can use gmxdump -cp on your checkpoint file 
to see what the output filenames used to be, and thus what they must now 
be called if you want to use appending.

 x2top is telling you it found nothing in the .n2t file.  Either the contents 
 are 
 nonexistent, formatted incorrectly, or you have a line ending issue (common 
 with 
 Windows OS - use dos2unix if necessary).
 
  (2) I will definitely need a top file for the polymers I will also be 
  solvating. But I also have problems because the pdb file contains a LIG 
  residue unrecognizable by Gromacs. I have asked this question before and I 
  was advised to change some files accordingly but to be honest I am not 
  really professional in that; I have asked someone who had a problem in the 
  past but he did not know all the details because he ended up not using the 
  modified force fields after all. Can anyone give me in details how to 
  incorporate the residue LIG within the force field or let me know whom I 
  can consult...A part of the pdb file with the residue LIG is:

 You need to introduce some sensible set of parameters for it.  Using a

[gmx-users] energy minimisation of carbon nanotubes.

2012-09-15 Thread Elie M

Dear all,
I have a small question regarding energy minimization. I am minimizing a carbon 
naotube in vaccuo and my (mdp )input file is: ;

; SWNT (10,0) on its own

; Elie Moujaes, SWNT+polymers project

; Energy minimization input file

;

cpp =/usr/bin/cpp

define  = 
-DFLEXIBLE

constraints = 
none

integrator  = 
cg

nsteps  = 
2000

;

; Energy minimizing stuff

;

emtol   =  0.1

emstep  = 
0.03

 

nstcomm = 
1

pbc =  xyz

periodic_molecules  =  yes

ns_type = 
grid

rlist   =  1

rcoulomb=  1.0

rvdw=  1.0

Tcoupl  = 
no

Pcoupl  = 
no

gen_vel = 
no
I have put emstep very loww toa chieve accuracy.In the output i got:
Reading file SWNT-EM.tpr, VERSION 4.0.5 (single precision)Polak-Ribiere 
Conjugate Gradients:   Tolerance (Fmax)   =  1.0e-05   Number of steps= 
2000   F-max =  3.48055e+03 on atom 799   F-Norm
=  9.67779e+02

Stepsize too small, or no change in energy.Converged to machine precision,but 
not to the requested precision Fmax  1e-05
Double precision normally gives you higher accuracy.
writing lowest energy coordinates.
Polak-Ribiere Conjugate Gradients converged to machine precision in 359 
steps,but did not reach the requested Fmax  1e-05.Potential Energy  =  
8.7646348e+03Maximum force =  1.6186214e+01 on atom 701Norm of force =  
5.4860659e+00
It seems that I have to use the double precision version but as the single 
precision is concerned,Is the minimization fine (as the maximum force on atom 
701 is 16...)?
Thanks

[gmx-users] g_nmtraj -temp

2012-09-15 Thread Joaquim Rui de Castro Rodrigues
Dear gromacs users,

g_nmtraj states that to make the motion clearly visible in PyMol you
 might want to amplify it by setting an unrealistically high temperature.
What temperature values do you usually need to use? To see nice domain
 movements, I need to set the temperature in the range 10-50K.  
Are those unrealistic temperatures “normal”?

Many thanks,
Rui Rodrigues

The outcome seems reasonable.  I doubt that any algorithm, in single or double 
precision, would ever reach Fmax  1e-05.  Values of Fmax  10 are generally 
suitable for just about any purpose and Fmax  1000 will generally result in 
stable simulations for most systems.

Dear Mark Thank your excellent and patience Reply.

it is very useful I Did as you Instruct in Gromacs Mailing List

But when I DO Energy Minimization I have got following error

Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 31 steps,
but did not reach the requested Fmax  1000.
Potential Energy  =  -nan
Maximum force =  1.36683186708214e+07 on atom 26
Norm of force =  -nan

Even I have Adjusted the Various Parameters Namely

emtol and  emstep still the same thing is repeated



The outcome suggests there is something catastrophically wrong with the topology 
such that energies are essentially infinite.

Re: [gmx-users] Resuming of calculation from last *.cpt

There is no errors in the filenames

In the above example init and initial names were used for simplicity :)


What you accomplished was confusion.  Always use real file names.  If you know 
enough to filter information and create a false reality, you'd probably be able 
to solve the issue without us ;)



Actually the name of the simulation was md_a2a_pope_SD

so I've used
mpiexec -np 48 mdrun_mpi.openmpi -v -cpi md_a2a_pope_SD -deffnm
md_a2a_pope_SD -append

and eror was

Fatal error:
Failed to lock: md_a2a_pope_SD.log. Already running simulation?


from cpt file after dump

output filename = md_a2a_pope_SD.log



I have seen this sometimes for unknown reasons.  The solution is to use 
-noappend and concatenate later.  Using the .cpt file guarantees a faithful 
continuation of the job; that's what is most important.
