Dear NAB and 3D-RISM Developers,
I would like to run some simulation with 3D-RISM, and after reading the
Manual for the AmberTools and playing with the program, several
questions appeared:
1.
How to run one point calculation of 3D-RISM in NAB so that to have the
solvent distribution functions saved on the disk?
I have to run 1 step of MD simulation with 0 K temperature and zero
velocities on atoms to get 3D-distributions - so actually i calculate
the same conformation twice. The only way to save 3D functions, that is
written in AmberTools manual, is to use ntwrism key:
mm_options("ntwrism=1");
But i have to run at least one step of MD or energy minimization (2
energy evaluations) to save functions.
2.
Does the 3D-RISM take the solution of the previous iteration as an
initial guess for next iteration of MD or energy maximization?
If so, why when i run MD where the coordinates of a molecule do not
change at all, the initial error (tolerance) of 3D RISM is about 10-3 in
my case, but the previous iteration converged to 10-11?
See the NAB input at the end of the message.
I would be very pleased if you know something about the questions and
drop me a message.
Thank you very much.
