GMX-RMSDIST(1) GROMACS GMX-RMSDIST(1) NAME gmx-rmsdist - Calculate atom pair distances averaged with power -2, -3 or -6 SYNOPSIS gmx rmsdist [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-s [<.tpr/.gro/...>]] [-n [<.ndx>]] [-equiv [<.dat>]] [-o [<.xvg>]] [-rms [<.xpm>]] [-scl [<.xpm>]] [-mean [<.xpm>]] [-nmr3 [<.xpm>]] [-nmr6 [<.xpm>]] [-noe [<.dat>]] [-b <time>] [-e <time>] [-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-nlevels <int>] [-max <real>] [-[no]sumh] [-[no]pbc] DESCRIPTION gmx rmsdist computes the root mean square deviation of atom distances, which has the advantage that no fit is needed like in standard RMS de- viation as computed by gmx rms. The reference structure is taken from the structure file. The RMSD at time t is calculated as the RMS of the differences in distance between atom-pairs in the reference structure and the structure at time t. gmx rmsdist can also produce matrices of the rms distances, rms dis- tances scaled with the mean distance and the mean distances and matri- ces with NMR averaged distances (1/r^3 and 1/r^6 averaging). Finally, lists of atom pairs with 1/r^3 and 1/r^6 averaged distance below the maximum distance (-max, which will default to 0.6 in this case) can be generated, by default averaging over equivalent hydrogens (all triplets of hydrogens named *[123]). Additionally a list of equivalent atoms can be supplied (-equiv), each line containing a set of equivalent atoms specified as residue number and name and atom name; e.g.: HB* 3 SER HB1 3 SER HB2 Residue and atom names must exactly match those in the structure file, including case. Specifying non-sequential atoms is undefined.
