[gmx-users] Position restraints

[Mikhail Stukan]

Dear gmx-users,

I am trying to simulate a thermalized wall in the framework of CG Martini force field. To do this I am planning to link my wall atoms to some reference points (initial positions) by harmonic potentials. From what I have found in the manual it looks like this can be done by using [position_restraints] declaration. What is not clear to me from the manual is if I understand correctly that as the "reference position" GROMACS will use the initial positions of the particles mentioned in [position_restraints] decraration? If yes then which positions of the wall particles will be written out at the end of the run? The initial ones ("reference positions") or the instantaneous position of these particle at the end of the run?

Many thanks in advance,
Mikhail
