Yes, they are all zeros. I am confused why this happen. Thank you for help.
And here is the mdp file:
; RUN CONTROL PARAMETERS =
integrator               = steep
nsteps                   = 50
; Output frequency for coords (x), velocities (v) and forces (f)
nstxout                  = 1
nstvout                  = 1
nstfout                  = 1
; Output frequency for energies to log file and energy file
nstlog                   = 1
nstenergy                = 1
; Output frequency and precision for xtc file
nstxtcout                = 1
xtc-precision            = 1000
; ENERGY MINIMIZATION OPTIONS =
; Force tolerance and initial step-size =
emtol                    = 1
emstep                   = 0.01
; NEIGHBORSEARCHING PARAMETERS =
; nblist update frequency =
nstlist                  =3
; ns algorithm (simple or grid) =
ns_type                  = simple
; Periodic boundary conditions: xyz or none =
pbc                      = xyz
; nblist cut-off         =
rlist                    =0.9
; OPTIONS FOR ELECTROSTATICS AND VDW =
; Method for doing electrostatics =
coulombtype              = Shift
rcoulomb                 = 0.9
; Dielectric constant (DC) for cut-off or DC of reaction field =
epsilon-r                = 1
; Method for doing Van der Waals =
vdw-type                 = Cut-off
; cut-off lengths        =
rvdw                     = 0.9
; Spacing for the PME/PPPM FFT grid =
fourierspacing           = 0.1
; FFT grid size, when a value is 0 fourierspacing will be used =
fourier_nx               = 0
fourier_ny               = 0
fourier_nz               = 0
; EWALD/PME/PPPM parameters =
pme_order                = 6
ewald_rtol               = 1e-05
epsilon_surface          = 0
optimize_fft             = no

And also another question, can Gromacs write out the energy for each atom at
each step? Just like it did to the forces? I use this mdp file and only see
the total energy for each step in the log file.
Thanks again.
