There is no best combination. The parameters for water for your solute must be derived using physically equivalent procedures. That's all. Dr. Vitaly V. Chaban On Thu, Jun 19, 2014 at 11:59 AM, Mohsen Ramezanpour ramezanpour.moh...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Gromacs Users, I have read some

Hi, It would be miraculous if there was a good solution for all observables. A rigid, symmetric 3-point water molecule without VDW parameters on the the hydrogen atoms has 2 spatial, 2 charge, and 2 VDW parameters. That's not much freedom, and most of the 6-parameter space is obviously wrong,
