Dear All,

I have the coordinates i need to calculate the VDW+ELEC component alone for
each step. with amber ff vdw radii and charges. I have made a file
containing the radii, charge and Espilon values. along with all-with-all
interatomic distance.

But i am not sure who to go about from here
E= vDW _E+ ELEC_E

VDW_E=?
ELEC_E=?

I am using the equation given below. say form any two atom A and B
                $epsi_total=sqrt($epsiA*$epsiB);
                $Rzero= $vdwradiiA+$vdwradiiB;
                $vdw= 4*$epsi_total*((1/4*(($Rzero/$AB_dist)**12)) -
(1/2*($Rzero/$AB_dist)**6));

For Electrostatic calculation,
              $elec=((18.22)**2)*($chargA*$chargB)/$AB_dist,

Please let me know if this is OK.


Regards
Bergy
