[gmx-users] gmx trjconv -force option doesn't seem to work.

2020-02-19 Thread 고연주

 
 
  Hello!
  
  I have a question about gmx trjconv -force option because it seems to work at 
all.
  
  
   I'm using GROMACS-5.1.5 version and I want to extract forces using gmx 
trjconv command.
  
  
   So I tried.
  
  
   gmx trjconv -f alad.trr -s alad.tpr -n alad.ndx -novel -force yes -pbc mol 
-o test.gro
  
  
    
  
  
   However, the force was not obtained in test.gro.
  
  
    
  
  
   How do I get the force corresponding to specific coordinates.
  
  
    
  
  
   Thanks.

[gmx-users] cudaFuncGetAttributes failed: out of memory

2020-02-19 Thread bonjour899
Hello,


I have encountered a weird problem. I've been using GROMACS with GPU on a 
server and always performance good. However when I just reran a job today and 
suddenly got this error:



Command line:

gmx mdrun -deffnm pull -ntmpi 1 -nb gpu -pme gpu -gpu_id 3 

Back Off! I just backed up pull.log to ./#pull.log.1#

---

Program: gmx mdrun, version 2019.4

Source file: src/gromacs/gpu_utils/gpu_utils.cu (line 100)

 

Fatal error:

cudaFuncGetAttributes failed: out of memory

 

For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS

website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

---




It seems the GPU is 0 occupied and I can run other apps with GPU, but I cannot 
run GROMACS mdrun anymore, even if doing energy minimization.

[gmx-users] How to deal with unexpected reactions in umbrella sampling?

2020-02-19 Thread Qing Lv
Dear Colleagues,


I am doing an umbrella sampling of an enzymatic reaction using QM/MM. However, 
as the reaction coordinate exceeds a certain value, an unexpected reaction, 
which is obviously unreasonable, often occurs during the umbrella sampling. So, 
how to deal with such problem? The only method I can think is to impose 
additional restraints to avoid this reaction, but the additional restraints 
will probably affect the umbrella sampling (although the additional restraints 
are not related to the reaction coordinate).


Thanks,
Qing

Re: [gmx-users] How to cap a single residue in gromacs

2020-02-19 Thread Quyen V. Vu
Hi,
Without saying about the physical meaning of your model because I don't
know what you are doing.
About technical point, I used your PHE coordinate and using pymol to cap
with ACE, NME as you said then execute pdb2gmx using amber99sb forcefield
in gromacs, it works well. What is the error that you say?

Re: [gmx-users] GPU considerations for GROMACS

2020-02-19 Thread Jason Hogrefe
We recommend Intel Xeon if possible. You can see how we set up our GROMACS 
optimized workstations  at 
https://www.exxactcorp.com/GROMACS-Certified-GPU-Systems

If Xeon is not an option, at the very least use a high-end i7 or i9 9th/10th 
gen. With Memory the system should typically have 64GB to start, up to 128GB. 
For the GPU we typically start with RTX 2080 and go up from there. 

Can you explain a little more about your environment? What SSD? What dataset? 
What type of job are you running, etc?

Thanks,

Subject: [gmx-users] GPU considerations for GROMACS

[EXTERNAL]

Hello,

Previously, I have helped building a workstation for my fellow researcher who 
heavily uses GROMACS for his MD simulations, with the following base specs:

-CPU: 8 cores (Xeon E2278G)
-RAM: 32GB
-GPU: 1x RTX2080Ti


With this setup, he managed to shrink down each simulation runtime to, say 
approximately 12 hours, compared to previous system (purely CPU only, no GPU 
support), which took days to complete.


1) Based on the current progress, we plan to build another system (which will 
also run GROMACS most of the time) using the existing workstation as reference. 
But currently we are unsure which setup (Option 1 vs Option 2) will GENERALLY 
give shortest/fastest runtime, when running the same set of GROMACS simulation :


Option 1:
Retain same CPU, RAM and GPU specs (1x RTX2080Ti)


Option 2:
Retain same CPU and RAM specs, but GPU wise, use 2x RTX 2070S instead of 1x 
RTX2080Ti


2) Besides building another system, we are considering to upgrade the existing 
system, too. For example, assuming the system has the expansion capability 
(enough PCI-e 16x slots, power supply), will adding another card (making it 2x 
RTX2080Ti instead of 1x RTX2080Ti) into existing setup will significantly cut 
down current runtime?  If yes, by how much time reduction can we expect 
generally with this upgrade?


Appreciate if someone can share their thoughts and experience.
Thank you!

Re: [gmx-users] GPU considerations for GROMACS

2020-02-19 Thread Kevin Boyd
Hi,

A CPU:GPU ratio of 4:1 is fairly well balanced these days (depending on the
quality of the hardware), so you should expect to roughly double your
throughput adding a second GPU to your current system. However, that
doesn't mean
your single simulation performance will double - it's a lot more efficient
to run multiple simulations in parallel with these setups, because multiple
GPUs don't scale perfectly.

We can't make absolute statements about the performance you should expect,
it depends a lot on workload among other things. Have you seen the "More
bang for your buck" paper?.

[gmx-users] Converting Charmm to gmx format using cgenff

2020-02-19 Thread Maryam

Dear gmx users,

I am trying to generate topology for small ligands using cgenff . I will
like to confirm if the Charmm to gmx script available on the Mackerell
website is compatible with all versions of charmm forcefield or can only
be used with Charm36 forcefield. P.S. I have tried it with charm22* and
did not get any error, I will just like to double check.  Looking
forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Maryam

 You can calculate the rmsd by passing the index file of the ligand...

[gmx-users] Selective RMSD calculation

2020-02-19 Thread Peter Mawanga
Hello everyone

After fitting the protein-ligand system to the starting conformation, I
would like to extract the RMSD information for the ligand only but cannot
find such an option for a selective output.

Please let me know if this can be achieved with the gmx tool, I couldn't
find such an option with both the "rms" and "rmsd" commands.

Re: [gmx-users] Increase Graphene sheet size

2020-02-19 Thread Mohamed Abdelaal
Hi Alessandra,

Many thanks again for your help :)

That sounds great.

I can simulate a box with the desired dimensions.

I repeated the graphene sheet using genconf into dimensions greater the
desired dimensions and then I created a box with the desired dimensions and
I solvate it to visualize it.

now I have an additional part of the graphene sheet which is out of the
box, How can I remove it. I want my simulation and visualization to be with
a specific dimensions which is the dimensions of the box.

I would appreciate if you can further clarify how can I do that.

Thanks,
Mohamed

The sentence, you have reported, is not clear. It could be that the authors
used
vdwtype = cutoff
vdw-modifier= Potential-shift   (from mdp parameter of gromacs2020).
rvdw = 1.1
But you should check with them, which treatment they use for the non-bonded
interactions

Alessandra

Yes/No, gmx solvate is normally used to add water or to build solvent box
but my suggestion was to use gmx solvate tools for your aim.
What I suggested was to use the tool to fill  an empty box (of desidered
dimension) with copies of your graphene pre-equilibrated (small) sheet.

2020-02-19 Thread Robert Cordina
Dear Alessandra,

Many thanks for your reply.


Re comment on nrexcl, I'm using nrexcl = 3 as the Sum paper states that "In the 
NERD force field, atoms/sites within a molecule that do not interact by any 
other intramolecular potential are also allowed to interact though the 
Lennard-Jones potential".  In the paper all bond stretching, bond bending and 
torsion angle parameters are given, so is nrexcl = 3 correct?  LJ potentials 
are 1-4 interactions, so this looks the right way to do it to me, but I stand 
to be corrected.


Re compressibility, that was a typo from my part in the email, it's correctly 
set at 0.1.


Re vdwtype, vdw-modifier, rvdw-switch, rvdw... I have read this section 
multiple times but I'm still not sure how to translate the description in the 
Sum paper to these settings.  Any suggestions as to what "Interactions were 
truncated and shifted at rc = 11 Å with energies shifted at this distance" 
would mean for these settings?

cutoff-scheme   = Verlet
rcoulomb= 1.1 
coulombtype = Reaction-Field (I have to use this because I'm using the 
epsilon-rf setting too right?)
epsilon-rf  = a.bcd 

vdwtype = Cut-Off (?)
vdw-modifier= Potential-shift-Verlet or Potential-switch (?)
rvdw-switch = 0 (?)
rvdw= 1.1 (will this just be the same as rcoulomb?)


Thanks again for your help.

Best regards,

Robert

If you do not have a pre-built structure, your equilibration time may be longer 
that in the original paper, the best is to ask the authors the coordinate of 
pre-equilibrated system.

Re: [gmx-users] Increase Graphene sheet size

2020-02-19 Thread Mohamed Abdelaal
Many thanks Alessandra for your reply :)

gmx solvate will add water around my graphene sheet but will not increase
the graphene sheet itself. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I already simulated the graphene sheet but I need to increase its dimension
to a certain dimensions.

any Ideas how to do that :) ?

Thanks,
Mohamed

That may cause a crash when you start the simulation

Yes the first thing I will do is to try is -ter.
Different force fields have different  termini definition

As far as I recall the error messages that you got was something like

"A tabulated bond interaction table number 4 is out of the table range: r
0.575410, between table indices 575 and 576, table length 501"

Your table is up to the 0.5 (501 lines), but the program is looking for a
values of 0.575410 nm, that it is out of the range of the values for your
table. Could it be that one of cellobiose-water distances  is 0.575410 nm
in the first frames?
The errors  seems to indicate that you need a longer table at least up 0.58
nm or more (even if it corresponds to high potential values).

Note that if  your table is  for  non-bonded interactions, then also the
mdp parameters set requirement on the table lengths

(see
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/user-guide/mdp-options.html?highlight=table#tables
)
