Dear David Case,
Sorry for my vague expression.
Actually my purpose is to fix some bugs of my code to calculate Ewald
summation.
I have already confirm my energy with GROMACS output, but GROMACS cannot
give each component of force, so I try to use Amber to give such result.
I try to make sure the input script is exactly consistent with the standard
Ewald summation, so that I can figure out where the error of my code is.
Attached please find 3 output files, ELECTRO3.dat is from my code and the
other 2 is from Amber. I also attach the corresponding input files, the
only difference is in debug2.in eedmeth=1.
To make the problem simpler, my system only contains 2 water molecules.
The force unit in my code is (mu*A/fs^2), so to convert the value in
forcedump.dat to mine, just multiply it by 4.184E-4.
My code does not consider adjust sum, while for both direct sum and
reciprocal sum, the value, as well as the sign, deviated a lot.
