Sv: Re: [gmx-users] surface simulation

2008-11-03 Thread Peter Ahlström
If vapour pressure is not too high, I think it is physically more
relevant to simulate a CCl_4
slab with periodic boundary conditions suck that you get an infinite
2-slab repeated in the third 
dimension such that you get a vapour slab in between (surface tensions
etc are normally 
measured in equilibrium with the vapour). So, in my opinion, the easiest
thing to do is to simulate 
a slab of CCl_4 together with the vapour (at least you get less
artefacts from bad wall models
in that way). At least that is a somewhat physical system. Normally I do
not think that position
restraints are needed (but I have no experience with CCl_4)

Cheers,
Peter

Some position restraints will keep your surface intact. See the manual 
for details. GROMACS will report how much "energy" is going from the 
restraints and you should check your parameterization by seeing that 
this energy is pretty small.

Hello Peter,
I found few of your papers earlier on poly (ethylene oxide). Good to see
your email in my inbox now.
If you can send the required topology files to simulate PEO, that would be
great.
Thanks in advance,
-Vishy!

Hello,
I have got some experience with simulating pure Poly Propylene Oxide (no water) 
using the force field of Borodin and Smith. IIRC they also made a force field 
for PEO. I could try to dig out the topology files I used albeit they are for 
an older version of Gromacs. Just mail me if you wish them - but I will be on 
holiday for the coming weeks.
Good luck

Hi Gmx Users,
Has anyone used Gromacs to simulate Poly Ethylene Oxide polymer in water?
If so, are there any relevant websites and tutorials?
I was involved in MD simulations of bilayers till now, and I know few sites
of Dr.Tieleman's etc. Similarly are there any for Polymers too?
Thanks in advance!
-Vishy.
