Re: charm-gui membrane builder

From: James Starlight (jmsstarlight_at_gmail.com)
Date: Wed Sep 11 2013 - 12:20:59 CDT

My problem have been solved via adding below term to the conf file

useConstantArea yes ;

instead of
 useConstantRatio yes ; # which was presented on the default charm-gui conf
file.

I'm not sure if this is possible to make such changes to the NON
equilibrated bilayers but this prevent crash with PBC error

also could my problem be solved providing softer coupling to the pressure
bath increasing below two params ?

langevinPistonPeriod 200.0
langevinPistonDecay 50.0

Finally does anybody knows some pre-equlibrated bilayers with suitable namd
inputs ?
