DESCRIPTION

21       gmx traj plots coordinates, velocities, forces and/or  the  box.   With
22       -com the coordinates, velocities and forces are calculated for the cen‐
23       ter of mass of each group.  When -mol is set, the numbers in the  index
24       file are interpreted as molecule numbers and the same procedure as with
25       -com is used for each molecule.
26
27       Option -ot plots the temperature of each group, provided velocities are
28       present  in  the  trajectory  file.   No  corrections are made for con‐
29       strained degrees of freedom!  This implies -com.
30
31       Options -ekt and -ekr plot the  translational  and  rotational  kinetic
32       energy of each group, provided velocities are present in the trajectory
33       file.  This implies -com.
34
35       Options -cv and -cf write the average velocities and average forces  as
36       temperature  factors to a .pdb file with the average coordinates or the
37       coordinates at -ctime.  The temperature factors are  scaled  such  that
38       the  maximum is 10.  The scaling can be changed with the option -scale.
39       To get the velocities or forces of one frame set both -b and -e to  the
40       time of desired frame. When averaging over frames you might need to use
41       the -nojump option to obtain the correct average coordinates.   If  you
42       select  either  of these option the average force and velocity for each
43       atom are written to an .xvg file as well (specified with -av or -af).
44
45       Option -vd computes a velocity distribution, i.e. the norm of the  vec‐
46       tor  is  plotted. In addition in the same graph the kinetic energy dis‐
47       tribution is given.
