Hello Jim,

Yes, but saying that it should is another very different question.

If you intend to have a QM/MM simulation where there are no chemical reactions, and where you can leave “rigidbonds all”, I cannot see a problem in using 4fs timestep in a QM/MM simulation (with mass repartitioning). However, if you have no rigid bonds, and you are looking to see a chemical reaction, your timestep should in general be 0.5fs.

Best

Rafael

Can this be done for QM/MM?

Hey, this isn’t difficult.

In case of Amber files use Parmed and something like

Parmed
>parm my.prmtop
>HMassRepartition
>outparm my.heave.prmtop

In case of charm you can use the new function of psfgen in VMD:

TkConsole
>package require psfgen
>resetpsf
>readpsf my.psf
>hmassrepart
>writepsf my.heavy.psf

In NAMD, you don’t have to change much, simply set:

timestep 4
fullelectfrequency 1
nonbondedfreq 1

and of course use the heavy topology you created.

Have fun!
Norman Geist

Also, have a look at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31265271/IbFjjjABXK6U&s=N2PVAe4SF4sKWCFgR134dw44MGeRTlk1Ak4_ufpk_uA&e=> and the supplemental files for examples.

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to implement hydrogen mass repartitioning in NAMD? I have never used this method before. Thanks!
