Hi all,

In GROMACS Manual, it is said that "In most cases Parrinello-Rahman
barostat would be combined with the Nose-Hoover thermostat as the most
practical choice", and I see that Nose-Hoover algorithm is only available
for temperature coupling, not pressure coupling. Why is Nose-Hoover not
used for pressure coupling in GROMACS?



Thank you very much.



Best regards,

Anh Vo
