[gmx-users] Artificial Shear Flow and Inconsistent Shift Error
Hi All, 1. Artificial Shear Flow: I am trying to do translocation studies and wanted to generate a shear flow without actual water atoms. I checked the mail list and it was mentioned that there is no velocity profile but an option to accelerate the atoms in a group. But I wanted to get the shear flow or the velocity profile without atoms. To make myself clear: I want the boat to navigate through water, with the flow of water but there is no water, am I making sense? So I want an artificial force applied constantly in the channel not on the particle so basically I define the velocity profile using the artificial force. 2. Inconsistent Shifts Error: I received this error in my simulation studies when I used PBC =xyz " There were XXX inconsistent shifts. Check your topology ", checked the mail-list and found the option of pbc = full should be used, but seems it is not available anymore in gromacs 4.0.3, My system is very small around 1000 atoms, and it works fine without periodic conditions, but when pbc is added it runs for some time and then gives me the error. What does this error actually mean? How can I resolve this?

That looks to me like the separate PME nodes are dying through some linking problem and the problem is only manifest on node 0 when its sendrecv doesn't complete. Forcing mdrun -npme 0 may confirm this when all the nodes die at the first point they refer to a symbol in the FFT library. Otherwise, looking at warnings/errors from the linker will be required. Are you compiling an FFT library version for the back end, or the front end?

VMD guess at bonds based on atom names and inter-atomic distances, so your .gro file isn't following the rules it expects.

RE: [gmx-users] about the bond connection between different groups
Hi Justin, It seems that I can not fix the fragmentation fault when position restraints is added and hence, I just consider using the freezegroup method to make some atoms in a whole group fixed .While the freezegroup seems to just be useful for the whole group not applicable to some certain atoms in a whole group, I consider defining the atoms I want to fix as an individual group and keep the other atoms in a nother group but still the fixed atoms are connected to another group because of the bond connection. Hence, I just wonder whether I can connect the atoms from different groups like that. You have said bonds between distinct molecules require a merged topology.

RE: [gmx-users] (no subject)
Hi Justin, In fact, I have tried to use freezegrps to freeze a whole single CG DNA strand and it works but if I want to freeze some atoms in this single strand, it seems that I have no choice but choose the position restraints. The freezegrps seems not to work for that. But the error for the position restraints always is fragmentation fault and can not be fixed although many methods have been tried. I don't know whether this is a bug in the gromacs cause I have followed the steps in manual to simulate a case(about speptide) in manual with position restraints while it still doesn't work. I am confused about that. Yang From: gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org [gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org] On Behalf Of Justin A.

See here: http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Errors#Invalid_order_for_directive_defaults Your index groups should be fine. A "subgroup" refers to select atoms within a molecule, as in backbone of the protein, headgroups of lipids, or some such similar idea. As I said before, your use of freezegrps and index groups should, in theory, be fine. -Justin > Thank you very much. > > Yang > > From: gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org [gmx-users-boun...@gromacs.org] On Behalf > Of Justin A.

[gmx-users] restrict two atoms in a group using freezegrps
HI all users, I have tried a simple case with two atoms using [position_restraints] but always it shows the same error : Segmentation fault (core dumped) But after I don't use the position_restraints for one atom and then I can run the case smoothly. It seems that the gromacs doesn't recognize this [position_restraints]; Then, I tried the freezegrps but it seems to restrict a whole group. Here, I wonder whether I can just use this method to restrict several atoms in a whole group and how to do that. Thank you for your any suggestions.

To me, removal of position restraints suggests that you are fixing in place some bad contact that is causing your system to crash. Have a look at the trajectory to see what is going on.

Either the parameters are wrong, or your .mdp options are inappropriate. Do your nucleotides really just consist of three particles (base, sugar, and phosphate)? If so, you may be missing some of the subtleties of hydrogen bonding (which is an electrostatic interaction), and the geometry within the helix, and perhaps even causing excessive repulsion between the phosphate backbones. -Justin > Thank you for any suggestions in advance. > > Yang > ___ > gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org > http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users > Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting! > Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.

Its absence leads me to believe that you are simply not being patient :) As I said before, data is buffered and not continually output. 3. What version of Gromacs are you using?

yes, I mean that when using the command "mdrun", the traj.xtc file is not ouput at all while the other files like "topol.tpr, ener.edr,md.log, mdout.mdp" are all output.

[gmx-users] course grain model for DNA
Hi all users, when I am using the gromacs to simulate the course grain model for DNA, it seems that the software doesn't recognize my force field file. I have included all the bond and non-bond parameters in the bon.itp and nb.itp file. During my simulation , I found that the base pair for C-G which first are in the balance distance always repel from each other so I try to increase the value of epsilon to increase the dispersion between this pair but it still did not work and the pair still repelled from each other after the simulation . Then I tried like this " ; Gb2 Cb2 1 0.000194e10 0.00217e4 " in my nb.itp file, I found that the simulation can still be carried on and the simulation result is the same for this base pair. So ,I got confused about this phenomenon . Can anyone of you give me some suggestions? Thank you in advance.

RE: [gmx-users] the Temperature in the mdp.file
Hi Yang Ye, Thank you for your reply. When I change the temperature, the disassociation about the two strands of DNA always happened even though the temperature is reduced to 0K. It is absolutely impossible. I think it is a real disassociation. So I am confused about the phenomenon . Any further suggestions ? I really appreciate your help.

Hi all users. When I change the Temperature in the madp file to try to get different result about DNA model's disassociation , but it is strange that result seems to be the same for different Temperature.

This is orders of magnitude too short to expect a large conformational change to happen. Think nanoseconds at least. Depending on the number of base pairs, think much more than that.

Probably, you only wrote one frame before it crashed. Does the log file look like it terminated normally after 1 steps? Use gmxcheck to see how many frames you have in the trajectory file. > Also, what I got confused is that when I set the value of nsteps larger than > 10, there is just static figure about DNA model. This is my part of mdp file 1) You need the simulation not to crash 2) You need to simulate for long enough (nsteps) to see a change 3) You need to write output (nstxout or nstxtcout) sufficiently often to keep yourself happy.

But you should be aware that 10 steps (0.02 ps in your case!) is an exceedingly short timeframe under any circumstances. If what you've shown is your full .mdp file, then the other values will be taken as default. For output (nstxout) this value is 100. So you will likely only see the starting and ending coordinates of your 10-step simulation. Try a longer simulation (>100 steps) or specify nstxout = 1 and see if you generate 10 frames. -Justin > I am strange about that and this is my part of mdp file: > > ;VARIOUS PREPROCESSING OPTIONS > title= atom > ; Preprocessor - specify a full path if necessary. > cpp = cpp > define = > > ; RUN CONTROL PARAMETERS > integrator = md > ; Start time and timestep in ps > tinit= 0 > dt = 0.002 > nsteps = 10 > ; For exact run continuation or redoing part of a run > init_step= 0 > ; mode for center of mass motion removal > comm-mode= Linear > ; number of steps for center of mass motion removal > nstcomm = 1 > ; group(s) for center of mass motion removal > comm-grps= > > > > > ; NEIGHBORSEARCHING PARAMETERS > ; nblist update frequency > nstlist = 1 > ; ns algorithm (simple or grid)c 4 > ns_type = grid > ; Periodic boundary conditions: xyz (default), no (vacuum) > ; or full (infinite systems only) > pbc = xyz > ; nblist cut-off > rlist= 0.686 > domain-decomposition = no > > ; OPTIONS FOR ELECTROSTATICS AND VDW > ; Method for doing electrostatics > coulombtype = User > rcoulomb-switch = 0 > rcoulomb = 0.9 > ; Relative dielectric constant for the Cut-off or DC of the reaction field > epsilon-r= 78 > ; Method for doing Van der Waals > vdw-type = User > ; cut-off lengths > rvdw-switch = 0 > rvdw = 0.9 > ; Apply long range dispersion corrections for Energy and Pressure > DispCorr = EnerPres > ; Extension of the potential lookup tables beyond the cut-off > table-extension = 1 > ; Seperate tables between energy group pairs > energygrp_table = > ; Spacing for the PME/PPPM FFT grid > fourierspacing = 0.12 > ; FFT grid size, when a value is 0 fourierspacing will be used > fourier_nx = 0 > fourier_ny = 0 > fourier_nz = 0 > ; EWALD/PME/PPPM parameters > pme_order= 4 > ewald_rtol = 1e-05 > ewald_geometry = 3d > epsilon_surface = 0 > optimize_fft = no > > > Can anyone of you tell me what is the problem? > > Thank you very much. > > Yang > ___ > gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org > http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users > Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting! > Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.

Yup - read the format description for these function types (e.g. Table 5.3 in the 3.3 manual). You're giving a set of parameters that do not match your function types.

RE: [gmx-users] f(x) g(x) h(x)in the user defined potential functions
Hi Mark, Thank you for your reply. From your point of view, I wonder whether you mean I need to write a table based on different interaction types and then change the source code for recognition when running my case in the gromacs .I just have no idea about that .Can you give me further suggestion about that?

You could write a table for each interaction type, modify GROMACS to read them all in, and then modify the routine that calls the kernels to use the correct one. This additional memory usage would grow as the square of the number of atom types. You would also see some performance loss which you could minimize by arranging to evaluate all of one type of nonbonded interaction close together in the nonbonded routines, to minimize cache misses. Better would be if some of these functions (conveniently) differed only by a multiplicative or additive constant so that you could re-use the same table and then apply a correction function, but you'll have to look at your own maths for that.

[gmx-users] f(x) g(x) h(x)in the user defined potential functions
Hi all users, When I am defining the user potential functions using the table, I encountered a problem that there are several unstable parameters in the separate f(x),g(x),h(x) .For example, in the g(x), there is a parameter "epsilon" whose value will depend on different pairs.In this situation, I can not get a specific value in the table file .

The table above is defined in section 6.7.2 on page 131 of the GROMACS 4.0 manual. 4) You will also want to read section 7.3.12 on page 148 about entries in your parameter file (e.g. energy groups, table file naming conventions) 5) You will need an index file that has particle groups for your new potentials. The group names in the index file are what you use for energy groups. 6) Pay attention to which combination rules you use in the topology file 7) Note that in the LJC(12-6-1) table in the top directory of GROMACS, the minimum of the LJ is -0.25 and not -1.0 so I guess there is a factor of 4*epsilon multiplied to the table values. What I don't know, and perhaps someone else can answer this is what should be done if you are unsure of how your potential is separated in to attractive and repulsive terms (e.g. LJ with COS tail). First, it's piecewise, and second the COS section is not the sum of two terms so how should it be broken across g(r) and h(r) or is it always OK to use the g(r) column for the whole potential?

RE: [gmx-users] How can I generate a Input *.gro file of coarse grain model?
Hi , I was also engaged in dealing with the problem about the course grain model . I find that in this CG force field , the potential functions almost don't correspond to that in the gromacs.
