[gmx-users] REMD As A Function of Distance Between 2 Chains

[Marcus Kubitzki]

Hi Huey Ling,

have a look at Y.Sugita et al. J Chem Phys 113, 6042-6051 (2000) for
details on Hamiltonian REMD, especially the correct exchange criterion.
In their paper, they discuss in detail what you want to do, namely
Replica Exchange Umbrella Sampling.
