Re: AMBER: MD simulations on small molecules immersed in sparse water shell

I don't know what PHS stands for. Do you mean the spherical boundary
potential?

In my PBMD simulations with shell waters. The restraining forces are
turned on when the waters are 9 A away from the surface of the protein.
This implementation is the same as the cap water setting except that the
boundary surface is not a sphere (set to be 9 A away from the surface
protein atoms).

Since we have Langevin Dynamics now, stochastic forces are also applied
to the waters to mimic the bulk. I believe this is the so-called
generalized stochastic potential for arbitrary boundary though with
long-range/reaction-field electrostatic correction taken care of by FDPB.

Best,
Ray
