NAME

6       gmx-nmens - Generate an ensemble of structures from the normal modes
7

SYNOPSIS

9          gmx nmens [-v [<.trr/.cpt/...>]] [-e [<.xvg>]] [-s [<.tpr/.gro/...>]]
10                    [-n [<.ndx>]] [-o [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-xvg <enum>]
11                    [-temp <real>] [-seed <int>] [-num <int>] [-first <int>]
12                    [-last <int>]

DESCRIPTION

15       gmx  nmens  generates an ensemble around an average structure in a sub‐
16       space that is defined by a set of  normal  modes  (eigenvectors).   The
17       eigenvectors  are assumed to be mass-weighted.  The position along each
18       eigenvector is randomly taken from a Gaussian distribution  with  vari‐
19       ance kT/eigenvalue.
20
21       By  default  the  starting eigenvector is set to 7, since the first six
22       normal modes are the translational and rotational degrees of freedom.
