Hi Abhay, there are several puzzling things with your input. You have:
- defined a bias on a collective variable, which is probably going to
contribute to the virial stress in ways that you don't intend (see the huge
MISC energy)
- you have a system where the only energy term is the Lennard-Jones
potential and the total LJ energy is positive: what does that tell you?
- you're reassigning velocities to maintain a temperature of 0K.
Before dealing with technical issues (which I don't see signs of) you may
want to re-examine the physical model you have used. The first sensible
step would be to reproduce a similar result from the literature, and follow
the published protocol. For every line that you put in the configuration
file, you must understand its meaning: no copy-paste.
Lastly, you had posted the same question yesterday (which was not a working
day for most people) and just re-posted it again because you wanted a quick
reply. Considering that replies to the mailing list are volunteer work,
this was a bit rude on your part.
Giacomo
