due to hight density the volume of my system have been slightly
increased and during NPT phase I've obtained error<br>
<br>
Fatal error:<br>
One of the box vectors has become shorter than twice the cut-off
length or box_yy-|box_zy| or box_zz has become smaller than the
cut-off.<br>
<br>
I'm using 0.9 for electrostatic and 1.4 for vdw cutofs and the
dimensions of my box was 6.5 3 3 on the initial step and 6.6 3 3.3
before crush :)<br>

I want prevent such expansion of my system by increasing of
pressure and/ or compressibility but I have not found exact
sollution yet.<br>

Your system is dangerously small for those cut-offs if your initial
density is not correct for your model physics. Your y and z
dimensions only just contain a full cut-off sphere. You should also
make sure you are following the advice about choice of P-coupling
algorithm in manual 3.4.9, and consider using a very small
integration time step. I remain unconvinced by this thread that you
have generated a starting configuration that does not have atomic
clashes.<br>

I've forced with another problem :D<br>
<br>
During npt equilibration my system have slightly
expanded so my desired volume and density were
perturbed.<br>
<br>
I've noticed the below options in npt wich could help me<br>
<br>
ref_p = 1 1 <br>
compressibility = 4.5e-5 <br>
<br>
i'm using this compressibility value because I'm
modelling the lipid-like environment so I think that I
must increase pressure. Could you remind me the
dependence of pressure from density and volume for
liquids ? :)<br>

Your forcefield, simulation cell contents and .mdp settings
will determine the equilibrium density. Whether you need to
do anything depends on whether you've made a statistically
significant post-equilibration measurement of your average
density. Haphazardly increasing the reference pressure for
the coupling will reduce the volume, but now you are
simulating at that pressure. See <a moz-do-not-send="true"

It seems that I've fixed that problem by reduce

I've checked only density value<br>
<br>
with 500 molecules Ccl4 I have density
that is twisely less that I need ( in
accordance to the literature ). Also I've
checked my box visually and found that the
box is not properly tightly packed so I
dont know why genbox didnt add some extra
mollecules :(<br>
<br>
In other words I wounder to know if there
is any way to add some extra molecules to
the pre defined box to make my system more
tighly packed ( to short distance between
existing molecules and place new ones in
the new space ) ?<span><font

Firstly I've created the box
of desired size with only 500
molecules ( I need 1000)<br>
<br>
Than I've tried to add extra
200 molecules by means of
Genbox<br>
<br>
genbox -cp super_box.gro -ci
Ccl4.gro -nmol 200 -o
new_solv.gro<br>

added<br>
Added 0 molecules (out of 200

... then there are no gaps large
enough to insert your molecules.
Either make gaps, or check out
genbox -h for advice on defining
the radii.

Two -cp options is not what you
want, and -nmol probably only
works with -ci.
