Dear all,
I am trying to perform a Single Point Calculation (SPC) (to compute the
potential energy) of a series of molecular configurations stored in a
trajectory file.
To do that I am doing a geometry optimization with 0 steps in each
structure, but I am not sure it is working. The input file I am using is:
spc.mdin:
&cntrl
imin = 5,
maxcyc = 0,
cut = 999.0, ! The system is just an isolated molecule
rgbmax = 999.0,
ifqnt = 1
ntb=0
/
&qmmm
qmcut = 9999.9,
qmmask = '@*',
qmcharge = 0,
qm_theory = PM6-DH+,
qmshake = 1,
/
&wt type='END'
/
To check that this is indeed doing what I want, I applied it to a
trajectory generated with the same potential energy function, using the
following input file:
remd.mdin.001:
&cntrl
ntx=1,
nstlim=200, dt=0.001,
numexchg=20000,
irest=0, ntt=3, gamma_ln=1.0,
temp0=300, ig=963,
ntc=2, ntf=2, nscm=100,
ntb=0, igb=0,
cut=999.0, rgbmax=999.0,
ntpr=100, ntwx=100, ntwr=10000,
ioutfm=1,
ntc=2
ifqnt=1
/
&qmmm
qmcut = 9999.9,
qmmask = '.*',
qmcharge = 0,
qm_theory = PM6-DH+,
dftb_disper = 0,
qmshake = 1,
/
&wt type='END'
/
Which as I mentioned it has the same potential energy function. However,
the energies printed from the trajectory don't quite match the ones
computed using the SPC.
This is the remd.mdout.001 file were I get the energies from the simulation

The energies then are:

55.5251 55.3027
56.4414 56.3467
59.2766 59.3794
63.4846 63.6437

74.7678 74.1447
67.0064 68.0420
70.3709 70.7692
They are very correlated, but still different. Does anybody know what is
going on???
Thanks a lot for your help, I deeply appreciate it!!
All the best,
