[gmx-users] Dihedral potentials

[Berk Hess]

Hi,

In the dihedraltypes section (or any types section), redefining parameters
for the same atom types generates a warning (saying it will use the last)
and halts grompp, unless you use the -maxwarn option.
For CHARMM there will be an exception to this rule in the next release.

But I guess you don't mean defining parameters, but interactions
in the [ dihedrals ] section. Any interactions listed there are added.
If you add an interaction twice, you get double the potential
(without warning).

Hello,
 I have a question regarding the dihedral section in a topology file. If I define two parameters sets for the same dihedral, are the energies added up or is the first one replaced by the second one ? Unfortunately there is no sentence in the manual regarding this.
Cheers,
Flo
