[gmx-users] Forming a micelles

[Chih-Ying Lin]

Hi
I heard that it takes very long to see a micelle forming.
How long should be the simulation time to see the micelle forming?
How many nanoseconds to put on the simulation?


Is there any particular difference to simulate the micelles than other system?
My simulation steps are
1. prepare the topology files and coordinate files for the water and the solute
2. do the minimisation
3. generate the simulation box
4. put water and solute together
5. run MD with longer simulation time

Thank you
Lin
