Sv: [gmx-users] PEO polymer

[Peter Ahlström]

Hello,
I have got some experience with simulating pure Poly Propylene Oxide (no water) using the force field of Borodin and Smith. IIRC they also made a force field for PEO. I could try to dig out the topology files I used albeit they are for an older version of Gromacs. Just mail me if you wish them - but I will be on holiday for the coming weeks.
Good luck

Peter

Hi Gmx Users,
Has anyone used Gromacs to simulate Poly Ethylene Oxide polymer in water?
If so, are there any relevant websites and tutorials?
I was involved in MD simulations of bilayers till now, and I know few sites
of Dr.Tieleman's etc. Similarly are there any for Polymers too?
Thanks in advance!
-Vishy.
