hi, Carlos:
It seems stable at NVT. But whenever I run it at NPT, it complains the
following after a few ps steps,
----------------------------------------------------
vlimit exceeded for step 21297 ; vmax = 178.029715000357
Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) was not accomplished
within 3000 iterations
Note: This is usually a symptom of some deeper
problem with the energetics of the system.
--------------------------------------------------------
Thanks !
