DESCRIPTION

17       gmx bundle analyzes bundles of axes. The axes can be for instance helix
18       axes. The program reads two index groups and divides both  of  them  in
19       -na  parts. The centers of mass of these parts define the tops and bot‐
20       toms of the axes.  Several quantities are written  to  file:  the  axis
21       length,  the  distance  and  the  z-shift  of  the axis mid-points with
22       respect to the average center of all axes, the total tilt,  the  radial
23       tilt and the lateral tilt with respect to the average axis.
24
25       With  options -ok, -okr and -okl the total, radial and lateral kinks of
26       the axes are plotted. An extra index group of kink atoms  is  required,
27       which  is also divided into -na parts. The kink angle is defined as the
28       angle between the kink-top and the bottom-kink vectors.
29
30       With option -oa the top, mid (or kink  when  -ok  is  set)  and  bottom
31       points  of each axis are written to a .pdb file each frame. The residue
32       numbers correspond to the axis numbers. When  viewing  this  file  with
33       Rasmol,  use the command line option -nmrpdb, and type set axis true to
34       display the reference axis.
