NAME
gmx-velacc - Calculate velocity autocorrelation functionsSYNOPSIS
gmx velacc [-f [<.trr/.cpt/...>]] [-s [<.tpr/.gro/...>]] [-n [<.ndx>]]
[-o [<.xvg>]] [-os [<.xvg>]] [-b <time>] [-e <time>]
[-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-[no]m] [-[no]recip]
[-[no]mol] [-acflen <int>] [-[no]normalize] [-P <enum>]
[-fitfn <enum>] [-beginfit <real>] [-endfit <real>]
DESCRIPTION
gmx velacc computes the velocity autocorrelation function. When the -m option is used, the momentum autocorrelation function is calculated.With option -mol the velocity autocorrelation function of molecules is calculated. In this case the index group should consist of molecule numbers instead of atom numbers.
By using option -os you can also extract the estimated (vibrational) power spectrum, which is the Fourier transform of the velocity autocorrelation function. Be sure that your trajectory contains frames with velocity information (i.e. nstvout was set in your original .mdp file), and that the time interval between data collection points is much shorter than the time scale of the autocorrelation.
