gmx-morph(1) GROMACS Manual gmx-morph(1)NAMEgmx-morph - Interpolate linearly between conformations
SYNOPSIS
gmx morph [-f1 [<.gro/.g96/...>]] [-f2 [<.gro/.g96/...>]]
[-o [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-or [<.xvg>]] [-n [<.ndx>]]
[-nice <int>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-ninterm <int>]
[-first <real>] [-last <real>] [-[no]fit]
DESCRIPTION
gmx morph does a linear interpolation of conformations in order to cre‐
ate intermediates. Of course these are completely unphysical, but that
you may try to justify yourself. Output is in the form of a generic
trajectory. The number of intermediates can be controlled with the
-ninterm flag. The first and last flag correspond to the way of inter‐
polating: 0 corresponds to input structure 1 while 1 corresponds to
input structure 2. If you specify -first 0 or -last 1 extrapolation
will be on the path from input structure x_1 to x_2. In general, the
coordinates of the intermediate x(i) out of N total intermediates cor‐
respond to:
x(i) = x_1 + (first+(i/(N-1))*(last-first))*(x_2-x_1)
Finally the RMSD with respect to both input structures can be computed
if explicitly selected (-or option). In that case, an index file may be
read to select the group from which the RMS is computed.

Corresponds to first generated structure (0 is input x_1, see
above)
