[gmx-users] nrexcl=3: ambiguous?

[Saumyak Mukherjee]

Dear Users,

As mentioned in the manual, *nrexcl = 3* means "*excluding non-bonded
interactions between atoms that are no further than 3 bonds away*". This
means, as I understand, 1-4 interactions are also excluded.

However, after simulation when "gmx energy" is used, it gives output for
1-4 interactions. How is this possible?

Any help/suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks & regards,
