A BRIEF CHECK OF RESULTS

In order to verify that our simulation ran successfully we used the command line tool gmxcheck. we executed it as follows for our .xtc file:

gmxcheck -f 1J8U_nosol_after_SCWRL_no_h_merged_crystal_water_md.xtc


How many frames are in the trajectory file and what is the time resolution?

We observed 2001 frames with a time resolution of 5ps.


How long did the simulation run in real time (hours), what was the simulation speed (ns/day) and how many years would the simulation take to reach a second?

The simulation ran 4h00:39 and had a simulation speed of 59.835 ns/day. To calculate 1 second we would need (1 / (59 * (10^(-9)))) / 365 = 46 436.0344 years
