[gmx-users] MSD close to a surface/layer

[Tuanan Lourenço]

Hi everyone,
I have a simulation with a metal slab and I would like to get the MSD of
the molecules close to the slab. I have tried the gmx selection that works
pretty well to structural analysis, but to the dynamical analysis such as
msd or rotacf there are some issues. I have tried the dynan_mol_com flag in
the gmx selection. But it is writing a huge index file, in which each group
index is the number of the molecules close to the slab in a specific frame.
I would like to know if it is possible to put a restriction in the gmx msd
and get the MSD in a specific box region.
Thanks
