Dear Dr. Wang,
I see two possible problems: first, your time step (dt) is too large at
0.02 ps (this is 20 fs, the normal value being 2 fs or .002 ps with
shake); second, the restraint of 2000 kcal/mol seems large also. The error
is a SHAKE error as far as I can tell, so lowering dt to .002 will
probably fix it. Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
