Hi ccl-users
I am a new CHARMM user.
In CHARMM (version c26b1) for liquid water simulation with PERIODIC BOUNDARY
CONDITION in a cubic box with box length say 31.063 angstorm, if i use the
following command is that okay.
command i used:
Crystal Define Cubic 31.063 31.063 90.0 90.0 90.0
Crystal Build noperations 0
Do the above commads mean coordinates of all the particles, those are out of
the primary box, in EVERY dynamic TIME STEP will be set back in the primary
simulation box?
If so, then in my final output coordinate file, I found some coordinates which
are outside the box, say -20.5 and 20.05 etc.
Please explain.
