[gmx-users] umbrella sampling Protein_ligand complex distance calculation

[rose rahmani]

I had this problem but i couldn't solve it.
 But i can tell you just a temporary solution; Don't use -sep with
trjconv,then use the output conf as an input for gmx distance. it probably
gives you sth like this;

time                   distances
   0.0000000    1.7537287    0.0238601    0.0428935   -1.7530417
   2.0000000    1.7294775   -0.0426260   -0.0664551   -1.7276745
   4.0000000    1.7153677    0.0664165    0.0698769   -1.7126565
  .
.
.
.
just consider that time=2 >>> is 1 ps                     ( depends on dt )
                                  =4  >>> is  2ps
                                  = 6  >>> is  3ps .........
but distances are exactly the same.
Sorrry, i know maybe Dr.justin and all professionals don't agree with these
solutions, but i can understand,when you don't get a proper answer,
sometimes you have to ridiculous solutions.That's it!
