Re: [gmx-users] density tip3p

Hi Nisha,I did not try OPLSAA since I need TIP3P model with CHARMM. With this FF hydrogens are also considered as interaction sites. This is not very good combination for GROMACS, but it appeared that the differences are not too big and the time required for simulation with H interacttion side is s

Hi Zuzana, You are right. I did get my density to ~0.986g/cm3, and I actually came across this other paper by Price and Brooks, and initially they get a density of Tip3p using pme at around 0.979g/cm3, but they tweak some of the parameters in oplsaa to get the correct density. I am n

Hi Nisha,I have performed a benchmark simulations of TIP3P water and I still obtained density 0.984g.cm-3. It looks that this model gives such a density. If you look at JCP 79, 926, 1983 you will see that the authors got 0.982g.cm-3 with MC. (Table 3) Try to evaluate alsoo other properties, each mo

Thanks. I will look up the manual again. Quoting Sander Pronk : Hi Nisha, Looking at your .mdp, there are some issues that might lead to the behavior that you describe: First: you should try to look up the published densities for tip3p water at 300K - they might actually be close to what

I have a box (3x3x3nm) of Tip3p water molecules ~900 and the density when I create the box using genbox is 997.177g/l. I did energy minimization run and the potential energy did converge smoothly, so I did NPT equilibration run of 100ps and I got the density value of 975g/l. Why does the de
