I think this could be due to either 1) the simulation setup should be different 
between 4.5.7 and 4.6.1 when running single point calculations, or 2) my 4.6.1 
compilation is not correct (although all regression tests passed), or 3) there 
is a bug somewhere.

I'll attach a script that automates the comparison between GROMACS and NAMD in a 
separate post (it will make this post  50kB). If you run it and got 
similar/different results as mine, I'll be happy to know. Also any comment on the 
simulations setup is highly appreciated.

Thanks for reporting. I have now created a redmine issue for this
http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/1249
Could you please upload the datafiles needed to reproduce this there?
Since gmx 4.5.7 is correct we can use that as a reference.

No, they weren't. See

You cannot hope to reproduce accurately the energy of a configuration if

terms stayed identical but the kinetic term became zero.



If you are using an .xtc file for the rerun, this makes sense since the .xtc 
does not store velocities and hence kinetic energy cannot be calculated.

Something you think is equivalent is not :-) Move to testing a system with
two lipids. Inspect all the logfile outputs very carefully for clues.



I totally agree :) So far I found out that for no cut-off simulation in 
Gromacs, rather that specifying a large cut-off, it needs rlist=rvdw=rcoulomb=0 and 
pbc=no along with ns_type=simple and nstlist=0 (according to the manual). I am running 
various tests and will update if I find out what is causing the discrepancy.

non-bonded interactions that are intra-molecule, so the non-bondeds also
seem fine.

Thanks Mark!

 No, they weren't. See
 http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Single-Point_Energy
 You cannot hope to reproduce accurately the energy of a configuration if
 you let the coordinates be manipulated.
 


The rerun option is interesting - in my case however the potential energy 
terms stayed identical but the kinetic term became zero.

 
 Something you think is equivalent is not :-) Move to testing a system with
 two lipids. Inspect all the logfile outputs very carefully for clues.


I totally agree :) So far I found out that for no cut-off simulation in 
Gromacs, rather that specifying a large cut-off, it needs rlist=rvdw=rcoulomb=0 
and pbc=no along with ns_type=simple and nstlist=0 (according to the manual). I 
am running various tests and will update if I find out what is causing the 
discrepancy.

The rerun option is interesting - in my case however the potential energy 
terms stayed identical but the kinetic term became zero.



If you are using an .xtc file for the rerun, this makes sense since the .xtc 
does not store velocities and hence kinetic energy cannot be calculated.

I totally agree :) So far I found out that for no cut-off simulation in 
Gromacs, rather that specifying a large cut-off, it needs rlist=rvdw=rcoulomb=0 and 
pbc=no along with ns_type=simple and nstlist=0 (according to the manual). I am running 
various tests and will update if I find out what is causing the discrepancy.

Actually pdb which is similarly doesn't have velocity information.  In this 
case however I'm mainly interested to see how the potential terms compare 
between the two packages with Charmm27 ff.

[gmx-users] Comparing Charmm 27 energies from GROMACS and NAMD

2013-04-30 Thread Reza Salari
Hi

I have set up two small systems, one with a single POPC lipid, and another
system with 23 POPC's arranged as a lipid bilayer. I am hoping to do a
similar comparison as in Table 1 in the Par Bjelkmar et al paper (porting
charmm ff to gromacs) for my systems. My main question is that for the
single POPC, all the potential energy terms match very well, but for the
membrane system the non-bonding terms differ significantly.

I am providing the full details below and greatly appreciate any hint for
better comparison of the energies.


Thanks,
Reza Salari

Details:

1) Both systems were prepared using VMD membrane package:

It appears you hit send too early.  Please provide the entirety of the details 
you intended.  Complete .mdp files and actual quantification of the differences 
you are observing are also very important.
