Hi Oguz,
pressure fluctuates a lot in NPT ensemble, because the volume fluctuates a
lot. If you would like
This is nonsense. The volume does *not* fluctuate a lot, it is the low
compressibility of dense fluids that causes the relatively high pressure
fluctuations.
Axel
smaller fluctuation of pressure, you can increase the Langevin piston's
mass in the configuration file.
