Dear Prof. case:
Thank you for your reply!
Is the vdW-radii and solvated charges defined in prmtop file? If
so, there should not be change outside the scmask. In fact, I did a
null transform, namely use the identical prmtop and inpcrd file for
both V0 and V1, steep slope was still seen at the two end of the
curve.
I attached my prmtop, input, part of output file at lambda=0.01
after 1ns production run of the null transform in the email. Could you
help me to find out what
is wrong in it?
Thank you.
