Hi Gustaf and AMBER
I did following:-
vmd -f [complex.prmtop] -netcdf [complex_eq_p2.rst]
but vmd shows following error:-
ERROR) Unable to determine file type for file '[complex.prmtop]'. Assuming
pdb.
ERROR) Could not read file [complex.prmtop]
ERROR) Loading of startup molecule files aborted.
I did
process_mdout.perl Heat_eq_v.out
it shows that EPOT is becoming stable but it shows data for only 30 steps.
Please find the screenshot attached
Could you please suggest why this only shows for 30 steps only from the
output file completely run till 60000 steps as mentioned below:-
NSTEP = 59500 TIME(PS) = 29.750 TEMP(K) = 296.46 PRESS =
0.0
Etot = -162697.5847 EKtot = 41669.2354 EPtot =
-204366.8201
BOND = 1538.1103 ANGLE = 4023.1180 DIHED =
6504.8927
1-4 NB = 1817.5173 1-4 EEL = 17582.9827 VDWAALS =
22950.2642
EELEC = -258783.7053 EHBOND = 0.0000 RESTRAINT =
0.0000
Ewald error estimate: 0.4978E-04
