Dear all

I am a bit confused about the output file I generated. The test run of my system is composed of a peptide solvated inside a box with periodic boundary. First I minimise the solvent, then I minimize the solute. Then I run a dynamics (oops I ran an additional optimisation?!). The script is the following:

echo
start MT2
memory total 1000 mb
prepare
read MT2_ref.rst
write MT2_fslu.rst
end
task prepare
md
system MT2_fslu
fix solute
sd 100
end
task md optimize
task shell "cp MT2_fslu.qrs MT2_fsol.rst"
md
system MT2_fsol
fix solvent
sd 100
end
task md optimize
task shell "cp MT2_fsol.qrs MT2_dyn.rst"

Here is the part confuses me. I plot out the "Pressure" and check the values and found that the pressure is negative on the column says "Statistics Average". I guess there is something wrong with my setting.

The second part confuses me is the header of the table. There are two of each three titles on six columns. I struggled to search on Google and on this forum to find out if there'd been anyone discussed about this but I cannot find any. Could someone please give me a hint?

The pressure can certainly be negative, in particular at the start of an MD simulation of a non-equilibrated system. This indicates that the system is contracting. Once equilibrated, the instantaneous pressure can still be negative, but the average over time should converge to the value of the external pressure as set in the input.

The statistics of properties are printed on the output file for the last 'nstat' MD steps as well as for the entire simulation. These are the two sets of three columns you see. Obviously the very first time that this block is written, the two sets are identical because the entire simulation has only progressed 'nstat' steps.

Continue the simulation for a resonable simulation time and both issues should be resolved.

Hi
I have tried to run MD ( Tio2 example). For this work which I need .rst and .top files, generated by Prepare Task. For Prepare Task ,we should specify 6 files.(Tio2.nw ,Tio2.pdb ,Tio2.frg ,Tio2.seq,Tio.sgm ,amber.par ).
After running Prepare Task, I have .rst and .top files. Then I have tried to run the MD task (for example dynamics) but I encountered with the following error:
EOF encountered on topology files

I appreciate any comment.
Thanks.
