Input files and parameters / No VDW interaction
August 29, 2023, 09:53:57 PM
I am getting an error regarding no VDW interaction for some molecules. I have defined the appropriate molecules to the force_field_mixing_rules to the file, but I still get the error. Is there anything immediately wrong with the file below? I am not sure how to erase this issue. When running the simulation I get the error below:

WARNING: THERE ARE ATOM-PAIRS WITH NO VDW INTERACTION CH4-C1 CH4-C2 CH4-C3 CH4-C4 C1-CH4 C1-C2 C1-C3 C1-C4 C2-CH4 C2-C1 C2-C3 C2-C4 C3-CH4 C3-C1 C3-C2 C3-C4 C4-CH4 C4-C1 C4-C2 C4-C3  (maximum 50 interactions shown)



My force_field_mixing_rules.def file is below:

# general rule for shifted vs truncated
shifted
# general rule tailcorrections
no
# number of defined interactions
9
# type interaction, parameters.    IMPORTANT: define shortest matches first, so that more specific ones overwrites these

Any help is appreciated!
