[gmx-users] X and Y dimensions in nanometers

What was the issue you had with g_gyrate?  As that is the best tool for this job.  Do you have pbc issues?

Subject: [gmx-users] X and Y dimensions in nanometers

Dear gmx-users,

I am working with a system composed by 20 molecules which are aggregated in water. I want to calculate the dimensions of this aggregate, but it has an elipsoidal shape, instead of a globular shape, as follows in this representation:

                   |
         _____|______
-----( ____________)------X
                   |
                   |
                  Y

Which gromacs tool could I use to perform this analysis and calculate X and Y (nm) as a function of time?

I tried using g_gyrate and observing the Rx, Ry and Rz components, but I couldn't get it right.

Thanks in advance,

Conrado Pedebos.
