[gmx-users] anisotropic pressure coupling for temperature annealing

Have you simulated the system without the annealing, to see if it does the same thing?  Bilayers are very sensitive to minor changes in setup, using someone else's equilibrated bilayer coordinates doesn't mean it's equilibrated for your system.

Dear gmx-users, I used anisotropic p-coupling for lipid bilayers and annealed the system from 330K-300K at the ratio of 2 degree/ns.And the x dimension and y dimension increased with time in the whole procedure, but actually the area/lipid should decrease when tempreture decreases. I think there may due to the P couple parameters I used. Now I write them here:
 
 tau_p               =  2.0      2.0     2.0     0       0       0
compressibility     =  4.5e-6   4.5e-6  4.5e-6  0       0       0
ref_p               =  1        1       1       1       1       1    
 
Is there anything wrong with my parameter? or should I use
 
 
ref_p               =  1        1       1       0       0       0   
 
I saw someone use this ref_p  before.
 
Any suggestion will be appreciated, thanks in advance.
