Thanks Alan
I tried with traj too and it's the same result....somebody use
g_energy or g_traj. The cuestion is having x and y. The problem is I
want to simulated a peptide-membrane system and the area couldn't be
constant cause the insertion of the peptide increases the bilayer
area. I think that is the compressibility , i changed my parameters
from
compressibility = 0 4.5e-5
ref-p = 0 1.0
to
compressibility =4.5e-5 4.5e-5
ref-p = 1.0 1.0
and the area changed from 0.645 to 0.62 and it isn't a good valor.
Maite
These the output traj -ob
