<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Dear gmx-users,</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I am working with a system composed by
20 molecules which are aggregated in water. I want to calculate the
dimensions of this aggregate, but it has an elipsoidal shape, instead
of a globular shape, as follows in this representation:

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;                    |</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; _____|______</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"> -----( ____________)------X</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;                    |</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;                    |</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;                   Y</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Which gromacs tool could I use to
perform this analysis and calculate X and Y (nm) as a function of
time? 
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I tried using g_gyrate and observing
the Rx, Ry and Rz components, but I couldn't get it right.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Thanks in advance,</div>
