Your suggestion seems reasonable to me.
I want to calculate order parameter (S2) of backbone N-H.
To calculate rotation correlation function of N-H bond vector,
I need to calculate the bond vector respect to molecular frame.
Is there any pre-set way or program to do this easily?
Thanks for explanation.
