Hamiltonian replica exchange based around the free energy functionality is in GROMACS, though it would be interesting to explore the PLUMED options more to understand the differences . . . On Thu, Dec 12, 2013 at 5:48 AM, Thomas Evangelidis wrote: > I'm not sure if pressure-based REMD is possible

Thanks Michael and Mark. Implementation of the pressure based replica exchange will be useful for membrane systems as membranes will be unstable using temperature based replica exchange. Btw, I noticed there is a recent paper on surface tension replica exchange simulations of membranes: http:

Quite right, sorry. P as the control variable is not implemented. NPT with T as the control variable is, for example. Mark On Thu, Dec 12, 2013 at 5:58 PM, Michael Shirts wrote: > Pressure replica exchange is not in currently. It will be added > eventually (it's not that hard, just takes time,

Pressure replica exchange is not in currently. It will be added eventually (it's not that hard, just takes time, and hasn't been a priority.). Note that pressure temperature control with berendsen pressure control will be 100% wrong. For pressure replica exchange to work, the barostat has to give

Thanks very much. As you suggested, making T with small increments such as 300.0, 300.0001, 300.0002 ... leads to complaints :-) I am trying to do replica exchange at different surface tensions for my membrane system. To achieve different surface tensions for different replica, I only changed P

Hi there, In theory you may use any parameter in the Hamiltonian, but I'm pretty sure Gromacs' REMD applies parallel tempering for temperature only. I never looked at the actual code, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't even check for differences in pressure between replicas and that's why it

Dear All, Is it possible to do pressure based replica exchange simulations in gromacs? Basically I want to do replica exchange simulations for my membrane system at different surface tensions. If I just set different pressures in the mpd file, then the mdrun will complain "systems are all the s
