dreiding force field for water

Hi users,

I am setting water system with dreiding force field (Mayo et. al., J. Phys. Chem. 1990, 94, 8897-8909 ), which requires pair_style (hbond/dreding/lj )

There are two atom types O and H,

for pair_coeff i used the following line,

pair_coeff 1 1 hbond/dreiding/lj 2 i 9.0 2.75 4 5 90

but its giving the error. all pair_coeffs are not set.

the before i can sense here is , due to acceptor and donor are same atom_type.

how can we fix it.

thanks in advance

regards
karthik

it looks like you have some kind of error
in the part of the input that you don't show us.
nobody here has any psychic powers.

Hi Axel,

I am giving the example file , where i am facing the problem.

i will also attach the files…

Hi Axel,

I am giving the example file , where i am facing the problem.

well, you are obviously missing the 1 2 interactions.
for your setup, automatic mixing is not supported.
you have to do it manually.

please have a closer look at the documentation for
pair style hybrid.

i will also attach the files..

no reason to be redundant.

Why do you want to use DREIDING, a generalized force field, for water? It is a lot more common to use specific parameters for water from a specific water model.
