<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman , serif","serif"">I would like to simulate a thin film of SWM4_DP water on graphite surface. First, I equilibrate the water only (run very well), then I add a graphite surface on it. I freeze the
graphite surface but the graphite surface acted crazily after a few time step (graphite surface deform critically, “blow”). The error is </span><o:p></o:p></p>
