   Thanks for your reply. There is no absolute reference here. The system 
is

just from this web site
"http://www.csc.fi/english/research/sciences/chemistry/courses/gmx2007";
(hands-on: The pull package).
 I really do not know the advantage or necessity of stopcm in SMD, because
when I test the two systems,
with and without stopcm, there is a distinct difference between the
calculated pull force.


MD is chaotic, so changing any detail will change the course of the 
simulation.
Any ensemble averages should be the same, but for short runs, as the course 
example, you do not reach the ensemble average.


I guess this is the reason for the difference.

Berk.

You didn't tell if you are using an absolute reference or not.
With an absolute reference you should not remove the com motion.

  Thanks to Berk. I just tested two system, one with stopcm and the other
without stopcm. I calculated the pull forces and compared them with each
other. There are really some distinct differences between them during the
80ps simulation. I worry about it, for example, in long time simulations, 
so

I want to know which one is the better and reliable choice, stopcm or
without stopcm. As I know, the NAMD package only removes the initial center
of mass motion.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi GXM Users,



   I'm trying to execute some AFM Pulling. I followed the pull code 
tutorial

from GMX WORKSHOP 2007, and I found there is no specific to com motion in
mdp, so the default is "comm-mode=Linear" and "comm-grps=System". I was
confused about it as I believed we should not stopcm when doing AFM Pulling
because of the external force. Does it problematic to stopcm when doing AFM
Pulling?

Thanks!



This depends on what type of pulling you are doing.
If you have an absolute reference you are right.

But when you pull between two groups of atoms, there are no
external forces, but internal forces between two groups.

Berk.
