Have you visualised the system to see what it is about that water that
is generating such a high force?

[gmx-users] Energy minimization of solvated MOFs.

2018-07-10 Thread Nagasree Garapati


Hi


I am trying to run some simulations on Metal-Organic frameworks like ZIF-8. I 
have obtained both structure file (from CCDC) and forcefield data from 
literature and I was able to successfully run energy minimization, and 
equilibirum MD (NVT and NPT) simulations on the crystal structure of MOF. But 
when I tried to perform energy minimization for a system of MOF in water (by 
putting MOF in a box and solvating using gmx solvate), I am getting following 
message and forces are very high on water molecules. I am not how to overcome 
this problem, any thoughts are appreciated.


"Energy minimization has stopped, but the forces have not converged to the
requested precision Fmax < 5 (which may not be possible for your system). It
stopped because the algorithm tried to make a new step whose size was too
small, or there was no change in the energy since last step. Either way, we
regard the minimization as converged to within the available machine
precision, given your starting configuration and EM parameters.

writing lowest energy coordinates.

Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 95 steps,
but did not reach the requested Fmax < 5.
Potential Energy  = -3.38556029741624e+13
Maximum force =  2.45386477264935e+25 on atom 306
Norm of force =  1.49337454338593e+24"
