Re: [gmx-users] velacc box of water
Thanks to Justin Mark for answering my second question... Could any one give me a hint on my first question that I copy it again? --about g_velacc and calculating the diffusion constant from that. In mailing list people say that we need to divide it by mass squared and 1/3. Then I found another recent post that said it has been included in the code... Would you please clarify this that if I need the factors or not. Also I found 2 numbers after integration. Integral 1 0.01595 setaverage SS1 3.718082e-04 Would you please inform me what are these number and what is the relation between them?

Re: [gmx-users] velacc box of water
Jamie Seyed wrote: Hi Justin, But this seems that did not change the number of molecule in the output (only the volume and density are changing) and it seems that -maxsol has not been used... my full command genbox -cp spc216.gro -maxsol 500 -o out.gro -p topol.top -box 4 4 4 if I change 500 to any thing else the result is the same and changing 4 4 4 to any thing else will change the volume and density... When simultaneously specifying -maxsol and -box, the two must work in harmony. A smaller box may not fit 500 molecules, and trying a larger number of molecules may not fit in a fixed 4x4x4 nm box. The command I used that worked was: genbox -cs spc216.gro -maxsol 500 -o out.gro -box 5 5 5 Note that this gives a weird output configuration, probably because the box is not appropriate, but at least its a template of a command that should, in theory, work. Alternatively, you can use the editconf/genbox combination to define a box and center the solute (which is water) with editconf -c, then fill the box with genbox, where -cp indeed specifies the solute (water) and provides solvent (water again!) with -cs. -Justin I got confused...

[gmx-users] velacc box of water
Dear Gmx Users, I have a 2 questions. First about g_velacc and calculating the diffusion constant from that. In mailing list people say that we need to divide it by mass squared and 1/3. Then I found another recent post that said it has been included in the code... Would you please clarify this that if I need the factors or not. Also I found 2 numbers after integration. Integral 1 0.01595 setaverage SS1 3.718082e-04 --1) Would you please inform me what are these number and what is the relation between them? --2) My second question is I want to make a box of only water (spce) with let say 500 water molecules. Would you please give me quick hints how to do it (the proper way) or refer me to good point? Up to now I can only have 216 water molecules from tuto/water folder and I tried a lot to start from the beginning, but I could not make it... I appreciate if you help me to understand the first issue and be able to overcome the second one.

Or, use editconf to adjust the size of a 216 box, and genbox to fill it to get a number that suits your fancy. In either case you will need to equilibrate before trying to measure velacc, just as with any other observable.
