shape of water box is badly disturbed ? What do u mean by this ? I think u
saw water molecules running our of the box, so there is nothing wrong in
this. For periodic boundary conditions (ntb=1 or ntb=2), you can use
variable "iwrap=1" to keep all particles in the same periodic box. The box
is not really changing shape/size, problem is that without iwrap=1, the
waters are diffusing out of the initial box and not being re-imaged back on
the other side. you can do image of or trajectory and have a look in the
proper shape.
