[gmx-users] Simulation of a protein confined in a box

[Suman Chakrabarty]

Possibly what he is interested in is a system WITHOUT PBC? I don't think
with PBC the system is really "confined", since there is no true wall to
reflect the colliding molecules. Thus to study the effect of real
confinement, it is necessary to remove PBC and impose reflective
boundary conditions. I am only guessing! :)
