Dear all,

This is the problem I meet with. GROMACS provides a Ryckaert-Bellemans function 
with 6 parameters (C0, C1, C2, ..., C5) , while what I need is a function of 
summation over 8 terms, that is, 8 parameters from C0 to C7. I tried to add the 
values of  the two additional pamameters at the end of each lines in the 
section of dihedral angles in the 'molecule.itp' file. The 'grompp' command 
then gave an error information, saying there could only be either 6 or 12 
parameters for Ryckaert-Bellemans potentials. So I added 4 zeros for the rest 4 
parameters in 'molecule.itp'. Now, the 'grompp' command did not gave error 
information any more and I run the simulation with a 12-parameter 
Ryckaert-Bellemans potential. The problem is that the trajectory obtained from 
12-parameter RB potential is exactly the same as the trajectory having 
generated by 6-parameter RB potential. That means the newly added 6 parameter 
values can not be recognized by GROMACS. Has anyone met with such kind of 
problems? What did you do to make GROMACS recognize 6 more parameters in RB 
potentials? 

Thanks
Bingster
