AW: NAMD with infinite cutoffs?

But it does actually work, at least without GBSA. The only problem is with the cutoffs that need to be smaller than the box.

 

Thank you

Unfortunately NAMD's implicit solvent implementation is not meant to work with PBCs.

Hey Joshua, exactly, the system should be periodic and with normal cutoffs, there exist spots within the cell where two solutes don't fully see each other.

Hi Norman,

Why not just make your cutoffs unimaginably large and run without periodic boundary conditions? Is there some part of your system that to be replicated to infinity.

Hey Brian, thanks for your suggestion, however the fulldirect thing wont work for me since I have implicit solvent conditions.

Best wishes

Look for the "FullDirect" keyword in the user guide and note all of the caveats.

HTH,

Hey there,

is there a possibility to have infinite cutoffs in NAMD. More specifically, is there a way to consider all interactions without running into problems with cutoffs to close to the box size?
