Keyword descriptions

DT

Type: real
Default: 1.00000000E+000 [fs]
Usage: dt 1.0

Description: timestep (might be subdivised in nrespa subtimesteps [Edit on GitHub]

FIX_CENTROID_POS

Type: logical
Default: F
Lone keyword: T

Description: Propagate all DOF but the centroid - useful for equilibration of the non-centroid modes (activated only if TRANSFORMATION==NORMAL) [Edit on GitHub]

HARM_INT

Type: enum
Default: NUMERIC
Usage: HARM_INT (NUMERIC|EXACT)

Description: integrator scheme for integrating the harmonic bead springs. [Edit on GitHub]

Valid values:

• NUMERIC

• EXACT

ITERATION

Type: integer
Default: 0

Description: Specify the iteration number from which it should be counted [Edit on GitHub]

KT_CORRECTION

Type: logical
Default: F

Description: Corrects for the loss of temperature due to constrained degrees of freedom for Nose-Hover chains and numeric integration [Edit on GitHub]

MAX_STEP

Type: integer
Default: 10

Description: Maximum step number (the program will stop if ITERATION >= MAX_STEP even if NUM_STEPS has not been reached) [Edit on GitHub]

NRESPA

Type: integer
Default: 5

Description: number of respa steps for the bead for each md step [Edit on GitHub]

NUM_STEPS

Type: integer
Default: 3

Description: Number of steps (if MAX_STEP is not explicitly given the program will perform this number of steps) [Edit on GitHub]

P

Type: integer
Default: 3

Description: Specify number beads to use [Edit on GitHub]

PROC_PER_REPLICA

Type: integer
Default: 0

Description: Specify number of processors to use for each replica [Edit on GitHub]

PROPAGATOR

Type: enum
Default: PIMD
Usage: PROPAGATOR (PIMD|RPMD|CMD|BCMD)

Description: Specifies the real time propagator to use [Edit on GitHub]

Valid values:

• PIMD

• RPMD

• CMD

• BCMD

TEMP

Type: real
Default: 3.00000000E+002 [K]

Description: The temperature you want to simulate [Edit on GitHub]

TRANSFORMATION

Type: enum
Default: NORMAL
Usage: TRANSFORMATION (NORMAL|STAGE)

Description: Specifies the coordinate transformation to use [Edit on GitHub]

Valid values:

• NORMAL

• STAGE

T_TOL

Type: real
Default: 0.00000000E+000 [K]
Aliases: TEMP_TO

Description: threshold for the oscillations of the temperature excedeed which the temperature is rescaled. 0 means no rescaling. [Edit on GitHub]
